Just a quick question as I have been having trouble getting the game working on windows 10, I can play for 2 - 20 minutes fine but randomly crashes with and without mods. I have tried every solution I can find and nothing works so as I was thinking about changing OS it got me thinking what OS do you run the game on, as this will help me decide what OS to go to.

 

Funny thing is I only installed GTA IV just to mess around with ELS and see what it is and how it works, ended up loving it so much that I cannot stop playing with it even though it does crash every now and then. (Crashed without mods as well)

GTA IV is notorious for crashing. I play on Windows 10, it runs fine and with looking at your specs it should run pretty well. It's just that the game is a terrible PC port, though still enjoyable when it works, it's really hit or miss with IV.

Sucks I have owned the game since it came out on PC but as you said its a bad port so would always lag, forgot about it for a bit and moved on and never felt like playing it again, but since playing LSPDFR and hearing about ELS I decided to try it out and ELS makes the game more fun for me, just sucks it keeps crashing.

Planning on switching OS anyway as I keep having issues with 10, just wondered which OS most members play GTA IV with.

Honestly at the point GTA V is at currently (if you have the money to buy it) is worth buying. It's tons more stable then IV and there's a few pretty good models out right now. And LSPDFR is good fun and an update is going to be released soon fixing and adding some needed features.

Already have it and really enjoy playing LSPDFR really looking forward to ELS V, completed the main game 3 times, and arrested so many criminals but would like to complete GTA IV and also play around with LCPDFR. 


EDIT: Downgraded to Windows 8.1 and now the game is working absolutely fine.
