109337 2002-12-27 21:26:00 Hi:

I don't know if you answer any questions or queries on games but I have one with GTA3, so here goes:

GTA3 runs quite perfectly on my computer because I have a decent Geforce2 graphics card and 256mb ram. But the problem is that after I saved a game and quit out of it, next time I go into it again and try to load my previous saved game, it gets stuck at the loading part, after a few second or more it automatically quit to windows(XP Pro), and the Task Manager comes up, under GTA3, which is already running, comes up "Unhandled Exception", what does this actually mean?

This happens every time I tried to load the game, I also tried saving at different stages but they still wouldn't work. it means that I can't continue from where i saved last, which is very frustrating.

Is there a solution for this problem?

Thank you!

109338 2002-12-27 22:58:00 Are you using a "legit" version of it ?? because it is known that the pirated version has issues with the save games ......

otherwise try updating to the latest patch for it

Support for the game is available @: Rockstar Games (www.take2games.com _Games,gta3§ion=issues&game_name=Grand%20Theft%20Auto%203)

There was a problem mentioned in a post earlier with it not loading properly. You need to update one of the windows drivers. Do a search here and you should find the article.

109340 2002-12-28 05:43:00 Yup, this is a known problem. You'll just need to download the patch. segfault (655)
109341 2002-12-28 06:20:00 That game should be banned Baldy (26)
109342 2002-12-28 07:49:00 Hello,

your advise came quite useful, but one problem occured during my installation after downloading, my version is a pirated one which I downloaded off the net. When I am installing the patch it says that
"D:\Grand Theft Auto 3\exe: unknown version.

Is this because my one is a pirated?
Is there anywhen or any other download to get it to work?
Please email me back?

Thank you

109343 2002-12-28 08:25:00 If you downloaded it off the net for free its a pirate copy.

Thats theft. You should be ashamed of yourself.

If someone in your family grew a whole lot of vegetables in your back garden, and just as they were ready to harvest, all your neighbours helped themselves without asking, you would ring the police and complain of theft.

Go and buy a copy of the disgusting game. At least you will have technical backup.

109344 2002-12-28 19:37:00 baldy, if you look past the "disgusting" part, it's a very fun game. not many games are made with gameplay as good as the gta games anymore.

there was a fix available for winXP. try searching your p2p network for "gta3 xp fix" or something similar, i know it's on kazaa. you could try www.megagames.com also. lemme know if you still have trouble

Oh well, any game that you get points for: Killing Police, Having sex with prostitutes and getting extra points for killing them with things like golf clubs, stealing property etcet.

No wonder society is so sick today
