I've managed to play the game just fine up until recently, I set the Frame limiter option to off, I tried to play but I crashed. I reset my computer, changed frame limiter to on in the normal game and tried again. I loaded up VC-MP and got to the Team member's screen, "Loading.." it said, then it just hung there while stupid annoying music played and then I had to restart my computer.. again and again. This keeps happening regardless of what I do. I tried reinstalling VC-MP but no effect, I replaced my vice exe with another copy of the same exe. No effect. Is there any fix for this? I'm not using any no cd patches and I'm using V1.0 exe.

Restart your PC, it worked for me.

Try to reinstall gta vice city

I was afraid someone would say that, if I must, I must.

Disable any firewalls you have running (and I mean disable), that seems to have been an issue for two other people, sounds very similar to yours.

Thanks alot, that fixed it, maybe this should go in the bugs topic if it exists.

It's not really a bug, firewalls stop things accessing the net, like a multiplayer game. It shouldn't crash, but even so, your firewall needs configuring properly to allow the game to play if you don't want to have to disable it altogether.
