GTA IV help

[Bahamut]

I'm making this topic for my friend, he wants to play GTA IV for PC really bad and he continues to call me on skype and ask me how to fix it and I repeatedly tell him
1) reinstall
2) contact support


Okay, so the problem he's having is that when he installed it and tried to play it, it won't launch. He put his SocialClub info in and whenever he clicks play or whatever, it doesn't work. He said he's contacted support and reinstalled (i know he hasn't contacted support, because he doesn't even know how). He went out and bought another copy from walmart for $20, and when he tried to run it, it didn't work. I'd probably know the answer but I have no idea what the forget SocialClub is and no idea what to tell him. Someone help me if possible. Thanks.

His computer probably can't run it.

Well the social club isn't even used anymore is it?

Has he tried the steam version?

That is the Steam version ;-;

His computer can run BF3, so I didn't think running GTA IV would be a problem

"This doesn't loving work!!!"

There's also a bug that happens every blue moon that breaks the game on the OS and the OS has to be re-installed. :I

I had the same problem. What I did is that I removed Games for Windows Live with this patch. I really don't know if it would work for your friend, but it's all I can suggest.

stuff son. I've told him everything that you guys have said and he's just like
"yeah right"
"wow that's gay"

"How do you do that???"

Also, if you remember this thread, it's the same kid.
