I installed gta san andreas on my system and it installed and started as it should , then later on i added a new hard disk and installed a fresh copy of windows xp with sp1.

after i installed all the driver updates etc i installed service pack 2 for windows xp.

i installed all my games again but GTA wont start , it loads a little and then comes back to the windows desktop screen without any message.

I have the latest drivers for all of my equipment in the pc , Dont know maybe gta does not run on systems with service pack 2 installed.
