Hi to all,

 

I got to the arrow in front of Michele place and black loading screen for the FIRST DATE mission shows, but it stays on that screen and it doesn't load ever.. and I did my time on waiting..

 

Alt+tab don't help. When I hit ctrl+alt+del it says that the program is not responding..

 

The game work fine on my PC if you don't mind the fact that the occasionally shuts down by it self.. I currently don't.. First I wanna solve the first date mission problem then I'll think of crashes..

 

So if anyone can help please do..

 

P.S.

Intel® Core2 Quad CPU Q9300 @ 2.50 GHz

3.25 GB RAM

Winfast PX9600 GT 512mb (nvidia) - Latest drivers

Win XP SP3

There are many topics with the same issue on different missions. You could've searched. Anyways, I'll say the same thing I said in the other topic:

 

This is quite random actually and frustrating indeed. All you can do is keep trying. As a first step measure, try turning off VSync from the graphics options. It has helped me in getting past the loading screen much faster than normal.

If that doesn't help, then try fiddling with your commandline.txt file. You can also try getting rid of it temporarily and see if the mission loads.

I had that patch installed..

 

Anyway I solved my problem...

 

I removed GTAIV, RSSC, XLIVE... and everything that have anything to do with rockstar and gta.

I even removed my saved games.

Then I removed everythin from my registry that is connected with gta..

And that helped.. I was normal again.. Wasn't going from forum to forum reading and trying all that can be done..

 

After few days I wanted to give it another shot just in case somethin' was wrong with my installation.. So I installed it again..

 

..and gues what.. The bloody thing worked!! And so far it works great..

 

Will I install patch.. NO WAY! I don't want to screw somethin up right now when all is good..

 

Hopefully there will be no need for me to use any patch..
