How u can change discs as pc games are not exchangeable and u can get refund out of them ?

If the disc is faulty you have a right to a replacement or refund if they don't have any in I guess.
Has anyone done the Paper Trail mission, using the mouse and keyboard to fly the helicopter? The controls are horrible. Is the only way to make the chopper fly forwards to keep picking up the mouse and moving it forwards? I bet it's easy with an analogue joystick because you could just keep it pushed forwards the whole time but with a mouse you can't do that.
I caught the other chopper up, but I was too high for Jacob to hit it. But I wasn't able to descend without losing too much speed :/ And then the other chopper gets away.
I hoped the annoying flying missions from San Andreas wouldn't be in GTA IV. Mind you the choppers in San Andreas were easier to fly by far.
edit - just realised you can use numpad 8 to pitch forward so that helps. (still can't do the mission though, grr.) (did it eventually)

Whats the point of definition toggle ? press P & it slightly blurs up the graphics, maybe some of you are already playing it like that ,lol
I found in same places (albeit very few) that it looked better blurred. It takes away a lot of the jaggies and makes the shadows a tad more bearable to look at.
Search ffs.

TBO a lot of things...even in this thread could be found out by googling.
However isn't that what a forum is about. People giving you a 'personal' answer and all that.
Pals together.

looks like SLI is working now, gave me +10 FPS.
Not to get too happy though, the game crashes far more frequently now, could just about do one short mission, I even got BSOD in Vista64.

I didn't even know there was a definition toggle!!.
Visited the tw@ internet cafe for the first time last night and the computer terminal screen was graphically corrupted quite badly, like a texture issue or something. Can just about make out the email screen buttons but thats about it.
Anyone had that?. I restarted the game but can't seem to get rid of it.

I just downloaded the XP32 version of 180.84, it shows as a 72meg file & when I got to the Nvidia install I selected 'run' & it extracted the files & suddenly changed to Fraps installer WTF?
Omg, I'm glad someone else has this problem too, happened to me a few months ago, every time I tried to install an nVidia driver it started to install Fraps, what a bizzare issue
Couple of fixes for problems I had....
Probably already posted here but here goes:
I had a problem with my analog triggers not triggering true trigger like., fixed by:
So that was kool, I re-booted just to be sure, go to load up GTA4..... and nothing, so I try again, nothing, and again ... BINGO ... into the game and asks me to log into GTA Social Club, 'OK' then the terms & agreements page displays, odd I think since it was fine befoer i rebooted. So I proceed to accept and log in, game loads, yup ok, all good, hit Start .... now it wants me to log into GFW, odd again since I saved all this and set it to auto login, type type type ... Enter' .... "Please enter your product key"... like WTF? I dont have one??!
google google google result below.

I'll take this back, looks like SLI is working, but the game is not making any use of it.
I think FRAPS was giving me erroneous readings. I'm back to 60 FPS
with game crashing all the time.

60 fps? oh didums

Not been reading this thread for a few days, is anyone else getting crashes every 10-15 mins with Windows Vista DEP (data execution prevention) causing the game to close?
It's driving me nuts, I get half way through a long mission and thats it, poof, gone

Is it DEP causing the issue? Just disable it for the time being? Worth a try if you think it's that.
