Crash on return.

[Malcolm]

Well this started quite recently.

Everytime I return after "putting" the game down to do other stuff, like MSN etc. I crash. I come back, press "Resume game" and then boom, crash. Every darn time, and I was wondering, do you know what is causing this? Has anyone else experienced the same problem?

Vista?

I once experienced this problem because of all the background programs I runned meanwhile playing, I think you should try to shutdown all programs while playing. Are you using Windows XP or Vista ?

[Malcolm]

I'm using Windows XP, and I'll try that Omri. I guess it worked for you, correct?

It worked for me yes, but I don't know why sometimes you just crash rapidly and sometimes you aint crashing. Now these days while I play I am running many programs in the background and not crashing, I just think its something.

I have same problem, but only if TeamSpeak Overlay is working.
When i select GTA:SA:MP from taskbar, then it gets stuck and i have to CTRL+ALT+DEL to close GTA:SA.
I use Windows 7 BETA.

I had this problem when I used Team Speak Overlay.

I had this problem once or twice, it got solved by just reinstall SAMP and GTA SA.

This is not gonna work with your problem, but anyway: Take a shoe and kick the ass of your computer. This is what i did when i had that problem

I think its just that so much stuff happens after you pause that your game can't sync it all and it crashes, happens to me after paused for a long time.
