Have you tried running it as admin after setting the compatibility mode?
is there such setting on windows xp sp3? didn't try it
Try reinstalling GTA SA and SAMP
I rather not perform this action as it will take me time and I am limited to one hour per day when staying on computer, also I don't think it will affect anything because I installed GTASA and SAMP at the same day. without downloading any other mods.
The first time I launched SAMP, I could see the loading bar and then I see the water(I think it is part of the map that is not completely rendered)t and "connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx (server ip)" and after that the game crashes with the exception error. and I cannot play SA:SP after this only when I end the "gta_sa.exe" processus (Yep, it stays there even after I qui SAMP)
from that point whenever I connect to a server the splashscreen appears then crashes, without showing me the loading bar or water around.
these are some additional info concerning the issue.
