All I can say is you da man. Kinda pissed it was something so simple as directx. I had directx but I guess not the proper version.... thanxs a million.

I get this error: Critical error:0x1

I'm sorry for posting another thread but I have gone through every thread on this site and have tried everything with no luck. First off I had GTA IV installed with LCPDFR 9.5 RC2(I ment 0.95...) and it worked just fine for a long time. I decided I wanted 1.0 so I tried uninstalling LCPDFR and tried installing 1.0 with no luck. I decided I would try to reinstall a new GTA IV. The game is up and running great. I installed LCPDFR 1.0 A and the hotfix with no luck. GTA would not even start with LCPDFR installed. I tried the 1.0B. No luck. Game would not start. I tried the 1.0B Manual install. No luck. I tried using the xliveless asi loader. GTA now starts but LCPDFR will not start in game. I am running windows 7. I have both application and exe files set to run with administrator privs. I've tried both running those files with windows 7 compatibility and xp sp3 both with no luck. My computer is a brand spanking new(2weeks old) alienware gaming computer so the specs are more than enough to run this. I have 1.0.7 patch installed. I don't know what else to do. I have tried everything I can think of. What am I missing? 64 bit system and legit cd of the game. No other mods installed. Brand new installed gta.
