Hello there, I'm having a problem. I just started a new playthrough of San andreas and I'm at the mission where you have to chase down the ballas after having ordered food.

My problem is, whenever the ballas car is about to explode, the game will crash and shut down saying "gta-sa.exe has stopped working"

Thanks for reading

(Also, I have no mods installed and i downloading the game through steam)

Did you try deleting the gta.set file in the user files directory?
Also,what's your system and OS(Windows)?

I'm not sure on how to get to my user files, I tried looking but could me using steam have something to do with it?

It does.I don't have steam and don't know anything about it,my bad.I suppose you can uninstall the game,right?If yes,do that.

I'd much rather not reinstall the game, I have terrible internet speed and it would probably take an entire day. I've verified my game cache and there seems to me nothing wrong with my game.

I can only give one more advice:Buy the game.That's all I can tell you.

Umm, I've already bought the game? I own it on steam is all.

[Th3MaN1]

He doesn't.

Hmm...may be a game file is missing. Try deleting your gta_sa.set file located in your user files directory.

Documents/ GTA San Andreas User Files/ gta_sa.set Delete it and see.

If not try re-installing the game from a Original DVD.

He has the steam version,and I already gave him those advices.So in short,it doesn't work.

I just tried starting a new game and the game also crashes any time a car explodes. I found this out in a mission where CJ goes to the cemetary and smokes car blows up

Have you tried running the game in Windows 98 compatibility mode?
Also, are your video drivers updated?
