Title: GTA:IV Loading Screen Crash
Post by: Allison on July 20, 2011, 06:40:41 am: As the title says, when I go to IV:MP and GTA:IV singleplayer itself, it brings the loading screen, then gives me an error saying it has stopped responding, yet it was trying to load.

Hope someone knows how to fix this.

Thanks,
Jenn

IV:MP: Nothing
LaunchGTAIV.exe: Fatal error: You cannot run if you don't have Windows XP Service Pack 3 or some thing

If you mean can you run compatibility mode as Windows 7/Vista on an XP Service Pack 3, you cannot. Must have the correct OS or newer.

I did a typo, I said XP when I meant to say Vista, but, what OS HAVE you got just so we can help you out a bit more?
