    I too have no issues here. I run it under win7 Pro x32 with no services disabled and using the latest 1.0.4.0 Razor1911 crack(Works on 1.0.0.4 too) with the latest patch + the latest ASI Trainer. The only thing I noticed was occasional lags but that was because of my AV :). BTW I do not run it with compatability mode. One thing is that for some ppl who still have the issue, I would suspect that it might be a bad download itself because mine works perfectly.

    yea lol, that too. :) I just know from past experiences that some Torrents are fake or corrupt or just having issues though. That is why I said that lol.

    Apart from being a massive resource hog and slower than it should be considering the graphics aren't breathtaking, GTA IV runs fine on XP, Vista, and 7 both x86-32 and x86-64 (they're the 'correct' ways of saying those). Just be careful of writing 64-bit, as it doesn't run on IA64. The terms x86 and x64 confuse some noobs as x86 is a higher number than x64 :)

    I have an Intel myself at the moment, but I do love the fact Intel hates that the x64 folder on the Windows setup disks are always called 'AMD64' :p

    I have the same problem. Lagging, I mean. I have tried those same puregreen's advices, but still cant get it working. SO can someone help me and explain those advices in "better way"? ( I am novice with computers... o_O)

    1) Can't get "advices" open. Or does it even need to open?
    2) What is w´Windows Event Log? Where can I find it? Maybe some link here onscreen? :)

    Thanx If some1 can help me.:biggrin:
