Heya, first post.

Alright, so after exhaustive readings of the site and support topics, endless frustration, screaming and swearing, I've come to the conclusion that this is completely **REDACTED**. No matter what I do, First Response either refuses to operate (Using Xliveless) Or GTA IV crashes on boot (With Dsound). I have no idea what's going on. I've tried a full reinstall, I've tried both Dsound and Xliveless, I've tried them together, I've tried every damned combination in order to try and get it to work. Nothing. I only bought GTA IV *FOR* LCPDFR, so if I can't get it to work, I'm just wasting my time and I'll return it.

I'm desperate here. Any help you can provide would be greatly appriacted. (Sorry, my spelling's awful). Below is the dianostic log.

First of all, your GTA IV version is outdated. Install patch 1.0.7.0 Then, dsound.dll and xlive don't work too good with both on. So decide wich one to use.

Heya, thanks for the reply.

Following your suggestion I updated to 1.0.7.0 and switched to Dsound only. It looked good for a bit, The game actually boots now, runs through all the loading just peachy. Then when it comes to the "loading - Bull in a chinashop' bit, it loads for a bit then just hangs my GTX 295 and crashes and burns. And I have no idea why LCPDFR could cause a card crash when it worked fine beforehand.

Any Advice?

Maybe you have corrupted save? :biggrin:

Why do you have Service Pack 3 on Windows 7?

It worked just fine before installing of LCPDFR, but I''ll try wiping them and see what happens...

I dunno why it's reporting that. Bug in the dianostics tool maybe?

If issue is not resolved: please update GTA4 and re-run the diagnostics.
