mkey82 Posted December 9, 2009 Share Posted December 9, 2009 Can it be that you didn't search before posting? You need SP3 for XP or SP1 for Vista.

Mokrie Dela Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 seems like your card isn't good enough - those settings are really low, your available resources (is that reffering to graphics ram...?) are REALLY low. I think your problem is this: Notebook. I hate to say it but laptops are not good for gaming. I have one and it wont run anything better then Vice City for games like GTA you really need a gaming PC thats my 2 cents worth anywya Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/434936-your-system-is-incompatible-with-p/?do=findComment&comment=1059681235 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Simply put, basically your PC is too sh*tty to run GTA IV on. It's meant to be run on a desktop PC. Not a laptop.

xXKenBlockXx Posted December 15, 2009 Author Share Posted December 15, 2009 (edited) Which model is your's exactly? http://h10010.www1.hp.com/wwpc/ca/en/ho/WF...2-81140604.html Yeah, that's mine, but mine is like a year and a half old. But it could run GTA San Andreas fine (altough there was an anoying black line around EVERYTHING).
