No offence but it's because your computer is complete garbage, your processor is 1ghz lol.

And you didn't list what graphics card you have, just that it's a Radeon.

I would recommend you to get at least a medium-high end PC before trying to play IV, it is terribly optimized, even the best PCs have problems running it on highest settings.

According to K-Mart.com, for that make and model PC(which is a laptop), has a AMD Radeon 6250, which is very weak and not good for newer games.

 

Also, not only is that a very weak Dual Core processor(bout the same as a Sempron, if not weaker?) is only 1GHZ, which for AMD Processors, you need at least 2.4GHZ for this game(according to the box the game comes in AND the Pinned "Can I Run It.." thread...

 

Since this is a laptop, however, there is NO way to upgrade it to make it work right with this game(or newer games for that matter)..So, you need a NEW and better PC to run the game without lag and properly.

 

 

You CAN run III(set in same city as IV-Liberty City) and VC just fine at good settings without lag( even SA, which requires much less specs than IV might be pushing it a little with this PC?) So, IF you want to play a Liberty City game on this PC, go with GTA III, it is Liberty City and will run just fine on high settings. smile.gif
