Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

^^ your GTA IV game is not working - right or it's crashing after starting the game ??

Try to patch the game to the latest version and download latest gfx card drivers from nvidia.

BTW, on which OS you are running this game ?

here's is the patch and download link :

Grand Theft Auto IV Patch 1.0.7.0
*updates.rockstargames.com/patches/gtaiv/title_update_7_EN.zip
*en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anisotropic_filtering

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ niraj trehan - I can't tell you why exactly the game is crashing as I won't be able to decode it any further - there are many online forums regarding this where you can post such error report. If nothing is fixing your issue try to contact the game publisher - they might be able to help you out or else there are many forums related to GTA - try asking your question there.

Have you patched the game to the latest version

I remember once I was not able to run CoD 4 - after I updated it to the latest versionI was able to play it .

BTW, I've played a few missions of GTA IV on vista x64 home premium - never faced a error coz I updated the game before even launching it

@ KaranTh85 - I use ( or try to use ) trilinear most of the time but if the game fells slow I go down to bilinear

@Niraj:
Which GPU you have, you signature does not make sense. Do one thing, run Furmark is the system stable.

U are spot on mate!!!

Actually i used a clever wit to make a fool out of Rashi Peripherals!!

I had GTX XXX 8800.....It happened to crash down due to heat!
now it was under warranty and I asked them to replace the same!

they said that HEat issues arent edealt in warranty.
I sent them a letter from Consumer Court .
and they reacted like whoaa!!
I said U people were like A$$****s and gave me mental trauma and all stuff !

and they said they dont have the model 8800GTX xXX in store and i have to wait for 5 months.
I said u can retake the value of my card and i will buy another card of same price tag...now the card was 8 months old !
and by then GTX models were out!
they gave me GTX 260 ....i used it for a week or so,and again contacted them taht it is underperforming my last card and i need a upper Version of teh card...adn they gave me GTX 280 by taking just 1k more!
so overall my gtx 280 cae for 40k which was actually of 49k at that time!!

heheheheh

I shared this info previously wid u people but hid that Consumer thingy !!!


@Can u give me download for furmark....I found a trojan file!

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ LeeRain - why you've re-posted my earlier post ??!!!

@ gourav.gunjan - rest assured that you will not get HD5750 @ 6 k anywhere in here - better get a HD5670 512MB @ ~ 5.5k or else extend your budget a little more - say 8.5-9k.

BTW, as cilus has asked what psu you are using - brand name and wattage ??

@ r4gs - your friend will need a good psu .

For gfx card along with a good PSU try getting Gigabyte Superb 460W @ 2.2K along with Palit GTS 250 512MB GDDr3 @ 6k.

ummm... i dont have a nice enough psu... it has 450 watt power supply and brand name is circle.. well thats not popular i know.. but it even does not have any 6 pin power connector which is neccesary.. well u said that getting 5750 is not possible at 6k... how much does it cost???also i found that gts 250 costs about 7-8k.. from where will i get it at 6k????? thankx for reply..

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:58 PM ----------

1st of all for using a HD 5750, you need a good PSU. Let us know what is your current PSU and its rating.
if your PSU is not good enough, Gigabyte 80 Plus Active PFC 460W @ 2.2k will be a good choice.

i think u r right i need to get new psu.. but my older ones too has a power rating of 450 watts... but does not has any 6 pin..power connector...but there are plenty of 4 pin connectors.. brand name is circle.. (i know its not famous one, but that was only in shop and the shopkeeper made me n my father convinced thats good.)... now what should i do.. i have a budget of 6k for graphics card and abt 2k for psu..

First of all, mind your language.

We are here trying to help you. I had recommended Furmark to you, since it checks GPU stability. It stresses your card to 100% -- if the GPU can handle this application, it means there is no issue with your GPU hardware, and the reason for GTAIV not running lies else where. Are you using a legitimate copy of the game..? Also which Foreceware version are you on. Is your Dx9 fully patched. Try to reset the BIOS also one.

Best of luck.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@Niraj, I can very well read. I know that expletive was not at 'me'. Its just that this is not the approach on a forum like this. We are advising you some 'thing', and you are terming it else wise. It is one of the most basic things which we can suggest being remote to you. I asked you some questions in post# 11331, we can continue post that.

Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here.

@ niraj trehan - I don't know about any kind of forums which can decode the text file file you've posted.

If there are any experienced guy in any forum they may be well decode your txt file - keep trying on some different forums as well.

As you've said your game ran well earlier then there might be some software running in the background that is conflicting with the game - try disabling in-necessary services and applications using msconfig or use a software called gamebooster which offers an option to close un-necessary services and programs.

Launch gamebooster - stop un-necessary services and programs running in background and try the game.

patch the game and try again or else you will have to do a fresh installation of the game or windows itself.

@ gourav.gunjan - try getting palit GTS 250 512MB GDDR3 @ ~ 6k along with corsair vx450W @ ~ 4k.

HD 5750 costs around ~8k

actually Piracy is in blood of indians mate!

If u are getting same thing working on ur PC for 40 odd rs and for rs 500 original...Just for a sheer joy of ORiginal ,hardly one or two will buy original.
GOvt is responsible for the same!
In our city U can get anything u want for mere 25 Rs for a Music CD,40 Rs a DVD game,25 CD game, blah blah.....

This is a serious issue and i know many of us will volutarily say that Kindness and being helpfull both start from home,but yeah only after U are earning urself...Till now,when u r on ur pocket money,I think Piracy will be a major boon for teens as for those who are getting pocket money worth 500Rs wont like to let it go on one game,rather will buy 10 Game DVDs.
No??

Okay, good to hear, that GTAIV is working. What change/modifications you made to get the game to function all right.

Regarding Furmark, it pushes your GPU all the way to 100% usage. So you get 10-15C more of temperatures. We use it to check stability of OC and GPU. 92C is all right for Furmark. Of course no one games on Furmark, and no game will stress it the same. Your GPU is all right. Game on, enjoy.

Well I want to discuss abt memory size of gpu... some sites said that for resolutions less than 1920x1080, 1GB memory in gpu are not needed... If it is so then is memory size proportional to resolution?? if yes then how????
