Your system is too weak. You should optimally have a 1GB+ graphics card. A 256MB will not cut it. Your system is most likely completely out of video memory. Your CPU is also a little on the weak side, as far as GTA is concerned, but your main problem is your GPU.

okie doke cheers mate. time to get the whip out on the bank lol

Since it does look like you need upgrades, my only recommendation to you is, don't get part's 2nd hand, if you buy it brand new, your getting exactly what your paying for and the only problems you may encounter are factory issues, not someone elses problems!

yeah your rite there mate the graphics cards is 2nd hand on ebay £25 or summit just a quick fix same as the chip bout £20. i kept my eye on the sellers feedback and they had 96% and up. i will be buying new as in time i wanna build my own with pcworld if they had the bundle in stock i could build one for £300.
