GTA:SA/SA:MP Problem ( Vista )

[Allison]

Hi, small problem. Whenever I go to hit "Connect" on the SA:MP client, it says: "gta_sa.exe has stopped working", loads, then says to close the program, and keeps going on too, also the same problem with my GTA:SA.

Help me please.

Okay, firstly, delete the gta.set file.

Try that first.

I had like 5 of them. Deleted them. Trying now.

EDIT: Failed. Still not working with a new screen now!

"The application failed to initialize properly (0x0000142)." Then the screen I said above.

It'd help if we knew what the solution was, for future reference. : )

Glad to hear it's fixed.

Solution? Install GTA:SA and SAMP in a different R* folder.
