GTA 4 only runs with 12 fps

I'm taking a guess it's running at that speed cause it's rather slow. I have dedicated video memory of 128 but I bumped it to 1k on the commandline.txt file. Not sure how else to make my game run faster, since I have all the settings turned down to the lowest possible.

 

My PC specs:

 

Intel® Pentium ® CPU N3700 @ 1.60 GHz 1.60 GHz

 

Installed RAM: 4.00 GB

 

64 bit operating system, x-64 based processor

Do you have any backround apps open? (Ctrl+Alt+Delete ---> Task Manager ---> [Windows 10] Show More ---> Processes)

1.60GHZ? That's not too good for GTA IV as it needs around a 2ghz CPU minimum.

You should consider yourself to be be lucky to run it with 12 FPS. With your PC it must be a problem to run GTA SA.

I get 30-40 fps on a crappy 2009 PC. All lowest possible settings including potato resolution. I think the physics are the problem because you are only lowering the graphics.

Get a better computer.

Not even a better computer can withstand GTA IV's horrendous optimization. Not to mention the outdated GFWL R* still uses, which baffles me to no end.

This is less R* issues and more using on board graphics. Plus your CPU isn't helping either. And really more RAM would help. I've noticed that V runs better than IV on my own machine mind you so there's definitely issues with the game too.
