cannot run gta4 anymore?

[ropeadopa]

Any suggestions would be very appreciated.

 

I've played through GTA before no problem on this pc. I have the legit version. I installed EFLC seperately and played through that.

 

 

but now when i click the start up in regular GTA4 it gives me the loading screen for a long time, then goes black, keeps playing the music, and just hangs there for eternity.

 

I uninstalled and reinstalled. repatched. I run windows 7 64 bit. Like i said it used to work fine before. I have no idea what the hell happened. I've tried everything to try to get this to run.. most told me to start the game by gta4launch.exe in different compatibility modes but nothing is fixing the problem.

 

thanks.

Try to delete game settings and make sure vsync is off.

i tried these but it did not work. same issue.

 

its just a retail version of game in case i forgot to mention.

 

EFLC still works fine. so strange.

i just updated by gts 250 to its latest drivers. no dice.

 

everything seems up to date regarding gta, social club, gfw. i've spent more hours trying to fix this than play the game!

I actually do get an error at start due to compatibility issues. but once i switch it to pretty much any other operating system it will load the game and appear to be running fine.

So is it working now?

it wasn't but i finally figured it out 5 minutes ago. I accidentally had dual monitors enabled even though i'm not using this other one. I switched back to one primary and the game loaded right up.

 

thanks anyway.
