Roeded Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hello! I to have bought a retail copy of gta4, 1 day ago. I have yet to launch the game at all, several hours of trying different things that have been posted or said or change this change that or update this or update that. no matter how I launch the game, through RGSC window, or GTA1V.exe. or the launchGTA1V, it is the same thing. Ive tried all compatability options, reinstalled game, reformat windows, and so on. FATAL ERROR WS10, over and over. I can download this xliveless.rar fail but dont have a way to unzip it without buying a program or something to do it. But why do I need to do that to begin with? Is this game just to old to run correctly on brand new systems? It was only 20 bucks at Walmart so its no biggie with GTAV soon, but it really chaps my a** I really would like to play this game. Any help would be realy good im not the most knowledgeable when it comes to some of these things people are posting to fix errors. DL'ing some hack or crack is out of the question as i dont want some random virus on my machine. Please lemme know if you have any ideas, thanks!
