GTA: San Andreas - NoCD Problems

[postaldudeleo]

This is what you do to stop crashes.

go to the cracked exe and right click

then properties and then compatibility. Select windows 2k and click apply.

No more crashes! Thing though is that i can't save, no way to get it to save for some reason. When I try to save it tells me to check save game dir.

How do i remove the file path for inspire fix. I think that might be the Problem.

Not really the same problem, but I've been playing my European edition with the "all languages" version of the no-dvd exe posted on the website, and everytime I enter the game it changes the refresh rate of my monitor from 85 to 60, and when I leave the game it keeps it at 60, and I have to manually change it everytime I leave the game.

Anyone has this problem? Anyway to fix this?

Anyway to fix this?

Maybe installing the newest drivers ???
For ATI it's the Catalyst 5.6 For Nvidia i don't know the exact version of the graphics drivers...

I have everything up to date, so it isn't that.

The game actually runs at 30fps, so hence the drop in refresh rate.

But apon leaving the game it should refresh back to original settings, I dont know why but there you go you must be jinxed.

Yes , but there's not a C:\\Documents and Settings\\Gtasasav on my machine...

I tried also to create it, but the result is the same...still crash!

Hi Probosk, please, be patient until my savegame dir patch is uploaded to GCW. Perhaps, it works better than the Inspire crash fix...? dunno...

[Probosk]

Hi Joe,
you are uploading your savegame dir on GCW??

So what's the problem for this game? i dont have understand what's the reason x this crash...

but this savegame could be shared on emule?

[Joe Forster/STA]

Hi Probosk,

You can read about the - probable - reason for the crash in another forum, whose link has been added to some of these threads. (Do some search.)

As for my savegame dir patch, it has been created independently of this crash problem: I simply don't like games puking their config files and savegames into my user's home directory (which I don't want to bother with) so I redirect those files to the game installation directory instead, by hacking the game a little bit.

[Probosk]

Ah ok...Joe

so we'll wait this "fix" ...


I wanna play but it's not possible for the moment...

If someone have solved this problem...

Give us more infos...

thx

@Jarrod 100
Your problem is, you and your brother are breaking the law! You are not allowed to install a game 'you' do not own! Nor have you read these forums rules! You will very shortly be banned from these forums! Go and buy the game yourself!
