try to patch your game to the most recent version. It MAY disable using mods, but oh well at least it might run. I dont use gta IV on pc, i use it on Ps3, so sorry i cant help much further.

 

 

Here try 1:

 

1. If you are using Windows XP, make sure that you have SP3 installed and Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 installed.

LINKS:

Windows xp SP3: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/confirmation.aspx?id=24

.Net Framework 3: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/confirmation.aspx?id=31

 

2. re install gta iv

 

3. If your running windows vista, upgrade to vista service pack 2 AND download the latest platform update.

LINKS:

Windows Vista SP2: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/confi...n.aspx?id=16468

Platform update: http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/exe-v...ion.aspx?id=209

 

4. download this new patch from rockstar for GTA IV which fixes loads of issues:

5. If running windows 7, use windows update to install latest updates.

go to www.systemrequirementslab.com

 

Run a scan. Make sure your you have java installed.

Next after it scans you must watch an ad. Thats normal. After the ad, tell me ALL the info it comes up. Copy and paste if you have to. Make sure you tell me as well if it says pass or fail. I only need to see this to know what the specs youve got in full detail. I will keep helping, just be patient.

Reinstall the game, install patch 7 and make sure you have installed the vc libraries from the game disk.
