and try again.

When the game has been working and it suddenly stops especially after changing drivers, etc.
First thing to do is Delete the gta_sa.set file, as it no longer contains the correct config for the game.

Install it on separate partition, works 100% for me on Win7 64bit. Only thing I donīt have is 1920x1080 32x colors, but I play 1440x900.
You can have 1920x1080 reso with ASI loader I think.

Basic:
Run As Administrator.
Use w98 Mode if you have a mouse problem.
Check your DVD for scratches or dust; always play with your DVD in the Drive (Don't use cracks).

Did you have Vista or XP and then you upgraded to Win7?
Which Version did you buy?
You installed the game from a DVD?
You are playing with that DVD in the Drive?
You don't have any mods?
Does the Admin User have a period in the name?

Yes, we need more details. Running in compatibility mode will not help You, Windows 7 will automatically disable aero when You run SA.
What exactly happens when You try to run it?
Did You install it somewhere else than C drive? It is recommended to be installed on another partition or drive.
And post your full PC specs.

You may have missed it, if you looked through other help topics, is We don't help people steal the Game.

Buy the REAL GAME and it would be unlikely that you will have a problem.
Try Amazon.com or others Don't buy a Download Game, get the DISC.
