Legal copy of the game? Is your game up to date? Running it as administrator? 

hi yep legal copy from steam and got the up to date version and I am running it as admin

Have you been able to play GTA IV before this? 

yep

Hm, alright. Please install these

ok ill install them and let you know

Please do, good luck! :) 

hi It just crashed after 15mins I went on them link I all ready  had them all

I don't think your computer can handle the game IMO. Your card is  about 900% slower than a 560 Ti. (http://www.hwcompare.com/8908/geforce-gtx-560-ti-vs-radeon-hd-5450/). A 560 should be able to run medium/high.

 

But to circumvent a less powerful computer, and maybe get the game up and running, create a txt file called “commandline.txt” (without quotes) in your main GTA IV installation directory and insert the following lines:

-renderquality 0 -shadowdensity 0 -texturequality 0 -viewdistance 0 -detailquality 0 -novblank -norestrictions -percentvidmem 100 -minspecaudio -novsync -renderquality 0 -frameLimit 0 -nomemrestrict
