Seemly Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 (edited) Trying to get the game working on my brother 's laptop, used to work fine, copied for him the updates. however the game starts downloading social club (which is about 54mb) once it's complete, the launcher "stops working", then after re-opening it does the same loop. i never thought it was anything serious until it started getting annoying. Things I tried: 1-Manually downloading social club. (later it said the game wasn't installed which i fixed using regedit.) 2-Copying social club from my PC to his. (put both gta v and social club in a folder called Rockstar games) 3-Copied his game to the main drive from E: to C:\Program Files none of these really made any effect, (Again, the game used to work fine). and i can't give verifying a try because my game isn't steam version. Any suggestion on how to fix this? P.S: His Specs: 6GB RAM I5 4210U R7 M260 2GB Windows 10 (Any comments regarding that his laptop is weak and isn't made for gaming, the game used to work fine on high with 35+ fps fine) Edited January 22, 2016 by Seemly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kvic Posted January 22, 2016 Share Posted January 22, 2016 If it's the DVD version put in the first disc a screen will show up asking if you want to uninstall, repair and something else choose the repair option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seemly Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 I am not really sure if it's corrupted game problem because it used to work fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seemly Posted January 22, 2016 Author Share Posted January 22, 2016 Now I tried the Chinese launcher method from a video, ran the game in compatibility mode of windows 7, and as administrator, none did work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesTKirk Posted January 28, 2016 Share Posted January 28, 2016 (edited) I am having the same problem (exactly as you describe it). See here: http://gtaforums.com/topic/839885-gta-v-compatible-with-windows-10/ Your brother referred me here, so thanks... it's nice to know I'm not the only person experiencing this issue, but it seems like we are a rarity, making it tough to figure out what has gone wrong. I did a lot of modifying of my newly installed Windows 10 OS to get rid of as much Microsoft data-collection as I possibly could... so my assumption is that something critical to the functioning of GTA V was removed in the process. But that's entirely a guess. Edited January 28, 2016 by JamesTKirk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
