I even has 1.0 version of GTASA and still had to downgrade as it was "magically" installing 2.0

I run samp on vista 64 bit, worke like a charm, only thing is to set compatibility..

Post by: Roadkill on June 28, 2009, 12:59:07 pm: My SAMP works perfectly with Vista. I don't have to set it to compatibility mode or anything.

Post by: John_Vaughan on June 28, 2009, 04:33:05 pm: Try to set it on compatibility mode with Windows XP, and try to see if that works.

Sigh, thats why I hate vista, Vista sucks (imo), and still there are people who get fooled by the look of the OS :S

Post by: Andy on June 28, 2009, 08:55:03 pm: Same here. My SA:MP works on Vista 64 Bit, maybe you will need to re-install the latest version of SA:MP or unblock it from firewall.

Post by: Daxx on June 30, 2009, 07:18:19 am: I can't get on sa-mp.com right now, but there should be a link right below/on top of SA-MP client download link on download page. Named 3rd party downgrade or something like that idk. Click on it, download and install it. Should work.
