1. CTRL+ALT+DEL -> Processes -> See if there is a GTA_SA.exe or something like that, if there is select it and press 'End Process' and then repeat until there is no more GTA_SA.exe's or w.e left.  Then try to run the game again.

2. Restart your computer.

3. Uninstall SA:MP, Uninstall GTA, delete GTA folder.  Reinstall.


P.S if any of these fix your problem, I don't want the money

Why you guys think he has gta_sa.set file if he installed his Windows again? As we all know, when installing operating system again it requires a HDD formatting.  :roll:


Anyways; try to uninstall all shit again and remove all the folders, then install again and try this downgrade-patch: http://grandtheftauto.filefront.com/file/GTA_SA_Downgrader_Patch;74661cd (http://grandtheftauto.filefront.com/file/GTA_SA_Downgrader_Patch;74661cd)

And if that doesn't work, try to find out if your antivirus-program, additional firewall or Window's own firewall is blocking SAMP or SA.

Try this to your GTA_SA.exe and SAMP.exe:

Right Click > Properties > Computability > Windows 98 (not sure so try others too)
