Good Afternoon

So I need some help I am running Windows 7 Home Edition

Downloaded GTA IV and Installed (successfully)

Downloaded GTA LCPDFR and Installed (successfully)

I never ran GTA IV before installing the mod

When I attempt to launch GTA IV either through Social Club or through the .EXE it opens a black diolague box and immediatly stops working I get a box that says GTA IV has become unresponsive and microsoft is looking for a solution

I have also attempted to run it as an administrator and with compatibility settings of Windows XP Service Pack 3

Can anyone help me out with this I am new and want to get playing ASAP

Thank You for your help and time.

Did you install the patch?

Sorry I installed the patch and everything works now apparently when I previously patched it something didnt work but I repatched and it works fine now

So I do have another issue I only go a half block from the start point and then I loose the city and road graphics yet still see the car from the first mission

so now the only issue is just a texture issue now?

If the only issue you are experiencing now is texture related, that tells me the fault is with your graphics card. It may not be good enough to run the game. What kind of card is it?

Try just re-installing the game.

That worked for me when I got that problem.

I have a "Intel® HD Graphics" Which plays Flight Simulator FSX perfectly fine and that is graphic intensive

GTA is more intensive than FSX

So what can I go to fix it short of getting a new graphics card? Because I feel as though my graphics card should be able to run the game

there is no way that will run gta iv.

It runs it I just have texture issue like vehicles and people are fine just no roads or builidings

you need a better graphics card

I write this in the hope that you have not yet bought a replacement graphics card. Why don't you check and see if there are any updates available for your current card? They are usually free so will obviously be much cheaper than buying a new card when it may turn out that you don't need a new one. If there are no updates then I am afraid your only option might be to buy a new card after all.

Well I created the commandline.txt file and it is rendering alot more textures so I think I might be okay just have to keep tweeking it

It'd probably be easier if you checked for updates as you only need to do that once, but it's up to you. Let us know if it gets worse. :smile:

do you know what graphics card you have? or is it a built in default one?

Ahem, he already posted it.

Intel® HD Graphics

Anyways, you're going to need much more than standard Intel Chipset onboard graphics to run IV, consider buying a graphics card (I'd suggest you do some research and make sure that your power supply and motherboard can support one first).

I'm gonna guess this is on a laptop?
