[MultiYippee]

My specs:

Intel Pentium 4 3.20GHz Hyper-Threading ON

1.5GB DDR2 RAM

NVidia Quadro FX 1400 128 MB (511 MB Hypermemory = 639 MB Proper GFX card memory.

The highest frame rate I get is 10 FPS. o.O

[nositiocerto]

@MultiYippee believe me thats not enough, my specs are:

Intel Core i5

4GB of DDR3 RAM

ATI Raedon HD5650 1GB (up to 2.5 GB with Hypermemory)

And it still runs only on a an average of 25 FPS (Maximum I got was 80 FPS, when of the city)

[terence193]

[shadowmonk67]

PPSSSST! Wheres the Windows 7 link?!?!?!?

[widdlepimplabs]

3 gigs of ram on a 1.3 ghz processor with radeon graphics, runs the game just fine with a very tiny amount of lag.

[biggianthead24]

You can get contig.exe from Microsoft btw.

[AlexAk96]

yo, please help! when i start GTA IV it appears a CMD (it doesn't stand anything there) and after like 5 sec another window comes up and it says GTA IV has stopped working! wtf :s can you help me?:)

[jameeble]

@AlexAk96 Re-install the game, then update it to the latest version (1.0.7.0)

If your using a Pirated Version - Download the 1.0.7.0 patch and crack.

[itstobixx]

rapidshare file link isnt working anymore

[Ic3Fr3aK]

Put in google: contig

download the first one :D

[PURPLEAPPLEGRAPES]

i have a dual core quad prossesore and i have 4 igs ram and its still fucking slow

[TehCreepers]

@PURPLEAPPLEGRAPES Dual core is still not enough, it's a minimum, 4 gigs isn't dat much either.

[MrSunshine571]

[iZombiHD]

[shahryar50]

The rapidshare file is not working

[thezenwithin]

@shahryar50

The contig.exe file is a MS official file which defrags an individual folder, apparently. Here's the official link:

technet.microsoft[dot]com/en-u­s/sysinternals/bb897428.aspx

[shadowmonk67]

DDR?!?! FO REAL?! Dance Dance Revolution? Lucky!

[kebubas]

Is there a tweak for faster loding screen ?

[GameHHH200]

NO Win7 Link?? :( very sad

[Lemur14]

Your bitch ass torrented GTA4? Buy it. You owe Rockstar at least that much. Asshole.

[Corvette35000]

Any computer nerds: is this good for playing GTA 4?

Nvidia Geforce GFX 260M Cuda 1GB

Intel core 2 Duo processor

Windows 7 64-bit

Advanced EAX4.0 Sound system

Asus (forgot model)

[Realiz3Designs]

@Corvette35000 Upgrade your CPU and GPU, definitely upgrade your CPU. GTA IV is really demanding on your CPU

[Corvette35000]

@Realiz3Designs reccomendations?

[Realiz3Designs]

@Corvette35000 Well I'm not sure how old your computer is, but I just recommend buying a whole new computer. If you really dont want that, then I recommend an i5 2500k for your CPU. I'm not sure what your budget is but for your GPU maybe go for something in the GTS series (GTX if you want to spend more)

[Corvette35000]

@Realiz3Designs I can afford any GFX card, but Im not giving away a comp. I just bought it so...what is (from fact not opinion) the BEST gaming card on the market?

[Realiz3Designs]

@Corvette35000 If your going with Nvidia, then most likely the GTX 590. Its $700+ tho.

[Corvette35000]

@Realiz3Designs DAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA­AAAAAAAAMN!!!! lol u serious though?

[Realiz3Designs]

@Corvette35000 Yeah, but you really don't need that, I have a GTX550 and I run GTA 60+ fps

[Corvette35000]

@Realiz3Designs o O? gta settings?? XD

[Realiz3Designs]

@Corvette35000 Erm not sure what I used, I use a graphic enhancer mod now :)

[HUMMUUUSSSS]

@Corvette35000 i would have to say the asus MARS II (dual gtx 580) gpu is the most powerful card on the market right now, they are at least 20% more powerful than a stock gtx 590, but unless u got $1000+ in your pocket then i would just go with the gtx 590

[cracktober]

You've searched around the internetS ?

[winpaduser]

the rapidshare link is down

[winpaduser]

the most demanding game right now is battlefeild 3

[63pery]

AMD Athlon II X4 620 proccessor 2.60Ghz

2GB Ram (i think DD-R 3)

64 Bit operating system

Graphics card: GainWard GeFoRcE GTS 250

[TheJackas12345678901]

[h4z3m1]

[h4z3m1]

[dimpu12387]

i have (sony vaio dual core i5) laptop with latest video card but the O.S is windows 7 professional (64 bit), actually to say this has exceeded the maximum reqiurements for gta 4 so, as it is windows 7, gta 4 is working little slow.PLEASE HELP ME !!!!!!!! or else so much money will waste for me

[BertholdStegemann]

i have a laptop and can run it on highest settings with 40-50frames per second...

[Just4ist]

heeey guys i found link but cant post here u know comment conditions ...

[iAnonymau5]

I have a Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTS 512, 4 gbs of ram, 7200 rpm fard drive, dual core processor 3.0 Ghz, and still lag a bit on high graphics.

[capricorn275]

@iAnonymau5 LOL no shit it will lag 8800 gts sucks and old ,dual core cpu sucks more ,the only good thing u have is 4gb ram but that aint gonna help much.At least you need a quad core to run the game smooth in high settings.Your pc is low range in the gaming world

[iAnonymau5]

@capricorn275 Lol, I'm running it on very high and it's running at about 60 fps. I don't think that's low end....

[capricorn275]

@iAnonymau5 Lol ye keep dreaming .Actually its lower then low end your pc .That pc cost like 150 euros today with eveything .Maybe 7 years ago might have been high end.Dual core processor is older then my grandma lol.And not to mention a 512 mb 8800 lool .Your lucky you get 10 fps with that old shit in gta on high .An intel core i7 990x proccesor only costs triple then your whole pc .Wake up kid

[blackdeath099]

@capricorn275 You really are an ignorant. The 8800 is an excellent card, capable of running most game today at the highest of settings. Few games can actually use the potential of more than 4Gb of DDR3. And some dual core are still better than some quad. Silly retard.

[Neally88]

@blackdeath099

my res is 2560x1440 what game could i run on highest settings that came out in the last 3 years? dumb comment

[capricorn275]

@blackdeath099 Ohh another stupid kid lool .So you are saying that a cpu that have 2 cores are better that 1 that have 4 right ?? and i am the retard right? Do you even know what cores or cpu is??? lol .The 8800 was released in 2007 ,we are now in 2011 in case you didnt know what year we are in ...I guess you mean it was an excellent card lol .And ram is for programms not for games kid .The only silly and ignorant in here is you ..FAIL.

[yomama362cody]

[Jumbojet776]

[tater259]

[AliJustRocks]

@DawnStrikerZero

Lets say u use patch 1.0.7.0

That patch has major issues.

Using the best setup u will ever find wont work you've got to downpatch to 1.0.4.0

Works for me while i'm using an Phenom II x4 955 and a HD4670.

[turbotonic27]

[shahil1997]

upload the ati drivers

[danie10ful]

it's not 14gb it's 18gb

[Mr2PacsFather]

@danie10ful why?

[danie10ful]

@Mr2PacsFather because it's a big game this ain't gta vice city 1,5gb

[Mr2PacsFather]

@danie10ful i need an account with social club or windows live games ?

[danie10ful]

@Mr2PacsFather just get gta iv xliveless so you can play the game with social club or windows live games

[Mr2PacsFather]

@danie10ful i used to have a gta4 that a pop-up will appear from dow .. and it said i logged on , was that from xlive ? what do you have dude

[danie10ful]

@Mr2PacsFather nothing of that sort dude i just use xliveless and is a mod for gtaiv



[Mr2PacsFather]

@danie10ful xliveless is a trick ? or you have to change something ?

[danie10ful]

@Mr2PacsFather yes something like that you have to just replace xlive.dll and your game is working perfectly and you dont have to log in anywere but if you want to play multiplayer make an acount

[Mr2PacsFather]

@danie10ful it only asks me for social club account , can i play multi on that ? or i need the xlive ?

[idaimoni]
