I installed GTA IV yesterday (sorry for coming late to the party 
) but i just can't get it to SAVE.
I've GfWL thingy in Windows and it gave me a link for fix for update error - which i downloaded. Even then when i open the game (via commandline - which btw is terrific - has increased performance like anything), i get a GfWL signing in EACH TIME (which is pathetic). After i sign in, it tells me that there is an update for this game - if i choose no, it wont sign me in (LAME) - i choose the update (i'm still in the game) - it downloads and then doesn't do anything - Any idea how this is fixed? How long do i need to wait for it to get downloaded.
Because without this, i can't seem to save the game
Its a RIDICULOUS way to save in a game.
Apart from that - whatever little i could play - i liked the game a lot
Here is my benchmark
CPU running at 2.8GHz btw

You need to have a windows live id, which i think should be linked to your account. It's a long procedure. And try applying the patch from the direct link provided in the other thread.
You NEED to sign in to Live at least once and RSGC before you can save the game. After that , you can start the game in Offline mode and it will run fine.

I installed this game today but can't even get the Rockstar Games Social Club to launch.I get the error message: "The application has encountered a fatal error and must close".
I found this link which seems to suggest that this is a dot net framework problem but even after following the steps it suggests I can't get the damn thing to work $@#$@#!
Possible solution to RGSC not starting - Steam Users' Forums
Anybody here got any clue about this?

memnom said:^^ If u have updated to the newest patch it doesnt occur, atleast to me it doesnt
Updating with the patch didn't solve the problem. However, l found a workaround after browsing the net. RGSCLauncher.exe gives the error however RGSC.exe within the 1_1_3_0 subfolder works fine! Finally, I'm able to play the game. My initial impressions are that it really stresses my 8800GT because I can hear the fan screaming after playing for some time.

this is what i got after i went to nvidia control panel and forced anti aliasing to enhance aplication setting -2x
from this :- [OLD-and- driver default]
game is fkkn smooth....it feels like game is ram-fsb bandwidth dependent .try oc-ing ur ram and fsb to get possible smothness......for piple using lower end cads try ocing ur gfx memory too!!!!!!
After seeing Escsysr... results i too oced my ram and there is significant fps increase
my system is c2d 2.8 ghz ,2gb kingston ram and a 9600gt oced to 720/1800/900
and yea 650i Ultra mobo, love it just awesome overclocker
1st test the rams are oced to 830 mhz from default 667 mhz
2nd test ram oced to 900 mhz
3rd test ram oced to 980 mhz
4th test ram oced to 1066 mhz
So increasing Ram frequencies more isnt going to affect fps anymore..
so i oced my proccy to 3 ghz
Conc: the game needs a much faster ram and proccy ..8fps increase :clap:
so boys and girls start ocing your rams
one last thing
