Any Chance to post your Computer Specifications here? Does it meet at least the minimum requirements?

Tried re-installing?

[Fuzzy]

The black box is totally normal, but it shouldnt disappear, after the black box comes it should start.

[shitix]

Yes i have reinstalled, same happened but now the black box never shows up and i cant enter game :/ and i dont know whats wrong, maybe i should reinstall windows?

[Wash]

Vista?

[polopolo]

you already installed 1.2?

[shitix]

im not sure if it was 1.1 or 1.2 but when i installed one of them it said it coudlent install because program was runing

and i use XP Professional

I couldn't play the game because I had Windows XP Service Pack 2 instead of 3, so that could be a possibility. And if that doesn't work then I suggest you re-install the game.

Hmm.. Vista is really what you should have for it, but I guess XP SP3 works too..

No SP3 works fine. Haven't you read the manual  :rules: lol 

And besides: Vista is not fully developed yet, still has some major bugs. Then XP is better because its older and kinda safer in a way  :razz:

Reinstall the PC, then upgrade GTA IV again without starting GTA IV..

What is says then. And make sure you have 1.2, because that version solves that problem.

I know it works on XP SP3, it will probably work better on Vista.

I installed this, I had 2 small problems, and it worked, on a 64bit Version of Vista too..

I have SP3 no problems on that, but the game just wont start..

Reinstall the PC, then upgrade GTA IV again without starting GTA IV..

Yes i will try Reinstall my PC but then i lose GTA SA, my CD is broken so i am curently using Daemon Tools..
