Any problems with other games?

Also, if you're running XP then go to your My Documents folder and look for a directory called GTA Vice City User Files for VC or GTA3 User Files for GTA III. Delete the .set file in there and then try the game again

If you install a new card, vice city says to:


Video card:-
- delete from the "Grand Theft Auto Vice City/models" directory the files
  "TXD.DIR" and "TXD.IMG" (if they exist)
- delete from the "Grand Theft Auto Vice City/data" directory the file
  "CAPS.DAT"
- delete from the "Documents and Settings/Current logged-in User/
  My Documents/GTA Vice City User Files" directory the "GTA_VC.SET" file.

its not new, i had it for about 4 months and i didnt change it while i had either installed...can someone tell me where i can get cheap graphic cards like ati radeon....

i know it my video card because before i upgraded my pc gta 3 worked and i had a p2 300mega hertz 128 ram and like a 12 mb card so it cant be anything else since my specs are more than double of the recommended requirements

You should not be having a problem with that card....its almost identical to my card , a ti 4200 which runs every game without a problem.

Try updating the drivers

i have a 64 mb mx series and it works fine.
i downloaded the latest drivers and it works even better now! :D
but it was always working and i hav xp home.. so all those people who say xp messes it up ... well i dunno.. for me xp is great i had 98 before and no games worked
so it should work for you
get the latest driver from nvidia
(its an all in one not specific to model)
good luck
enjoy vice city!

I have that card and it plays GTA Vice City perfectly without any glitches.

Make sure you have the latest drivers,how much RAM you got?

I got that warning about it being untested by MS as well, but at least with XP Pro, that is just a warning, and you still have the option to install those drivers anyways. I installed them and have had absolutely no problems at all with them.
