Basically stuck on 800x600 with a graphics warning.:(

Can anyone help me with the problem?

I previously had tried the iCEnhancer mod and always ended up with being stuck in 800x600 resolution with no way to increase it, the slider tries to go up but when you let go, it goes back to 800x600:

Recently changed my rig apart from the gpus, 6950>70 xfire.

Clean OS install.

I have followed the instructions to downgrade to v.1.0.4.0

Tried iCe again, same problem.
I have since deleted all GTA4 content from steam and redownloaded and installed.

Now even on a new GTA4 installation without even installing iCE, I am still stuck on the low res.

Is there a config file that can be deleted anywhere or modified?

Anyone know how to fix this?

I put it in another thread but no help so far so I thought I would put up a new thread.
 
Had the same problem.

This happens when you have the cards crossfired. Run in single card mode, and you can max it out. Game doesnt work multiple cards as far as i know,


for me now, at 2560 x1600 its finally playable framrate, but still dips low in places.

thats with everything maxed out.
 
Alternatively you can run the -norestrictions command either on the shortcut or creating a commandline.cfg file, the error will still be there but you should be able to max out all settings.

I had the same problem, before a fresh install the -norestrictions command worked fine, after new OS install it would result in heavy frame drops, so it may/may-not work for you.
