I would suggest Windows reinstall/repair. But,as I assume you have the downloaded GTA:SA..Im suggesting you to download another GTA that is something like "RELOADED" aka working without installing(so it have registry insert thingy for manual use)
Or just try recracking gta.exe

I meant that you said did i install samp in my gta sa folder.
I won't reinstall windows because my samp isn't working, its not the end of the world, but i'll try to download another GTA, which is hopefully gonna work. :/
Btw, i got crack with this SA i downloaded before like one year, and it was all fine untill one day my samp wouldn't load and it started to go slow, then i realised it was HDD problem that was to slow, so i installed it to another and it was all goin' fine and now again this shit.

all other games still working perfectly?
Title: Re: sa:mp problems
Post by: iMJets on June 06, 2011, 03:04:51 AM
try this C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\

delete your rockstar games folder out of here, and then delete your documents folder for gta sa. Use ccleaner to clean your directory, and old files. then reinstall sa, and samp.

hope it helps!

if the thing jets said doesnt work then reinstall graphics drivers and download last version of directX

if that still fails you probably have to reinstall windows :-*

@Bike - I don't play any other games except Crossfire but yeah that one is working fine..
@Jets - I couldn't even find this folder, so i put "Show hidden folders" and found it but it wasnt C:\Users\YourName\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\
it was C:\Documents and Settings\Renato\Local Settings\Application Data, cause i don't have Users folder in C:, nor i got Local in AppData, but i got App data in Local settings, and it opened my "program files" directly, i didn't have VirtualStore folder, and i couldn't find GTA in my "program files".

Are you on Windows 7 Reny? Because then i might have the cure for you.

Edit1:
Nvm this post as Jets has already told u :(



Edit2: actually try this one

C:\Users\YourName\AppData\LocalLow\VirtualStore\Program Files\                  instead of Local use LocalLow.

Also go to Start typ in %appdata%   then at the adress bar on the top click on Appdata. Then Local, LocalLow and Roaming will appear. Then check Local and locallow for any GTA files that u can delete.

Also there might be a Rockstar Games folder in Local or LocalLow already without going to virtualstore.

I'm on windows XP, and when i type %appdata% in run, it opens this C:\Documents and Settings\Renato\Application Data and i don't have LocalLow there nor Local.

That problem, that I tryed to have him fix is only in Vista, and 7, at least I believe. I believe its the crack that is causing a problem, I had this same problem once recently, but now for some odd reason, I have the legit disc, and I get tons of graphics bugs everywere if i minimize, say to look at skype. Thats off topic anyways but if anyone knows how to fix that would be nice. Your best bet is to find a new fix for your game exe, or crack like you said. I won't point you in the direction of that, because I know that it is not allowed on this forums, and thats fine. But you should be able to find one easy, try different ones. You should get the game to work. If not I can try to figure if I had did something different to get it to work, when I had that problem.

Try to be faster Jets and push ESC before you push the "Windows" button.

lol i dont really get what that means. im gonna try to update my graphics card if its needed. It would make me mad if its been that problem for the past month or so. The game is playable just till i minimize things get all pixelly. when i come back.

Thats why I said use ESC button first. Used to happen to me when I minimized without ESC button. Assuming that couses graphics bug for you too.
