Grand Theft Auto 3 wont load anymore?

[krupted]

it worked fine for a long time but the game quit on me and it wouldnt restart. i reinstalled and it works without the 1.1 patch, but as soon as i install the patch it wont load, i click the plae.exe and it does nothing

i wouldnt mind playing without the 1.1 patch but i uh, lost... my origional cd and the 1.1 patch is the only way to play 'backups'.... yeah thats it

I guess the 1.1 patch doesn't like the 'backup' you have

Looks like you'll have to buy the game.

well last night i tried reinstalling direct x, and it didnt help.

THen i tried reinstalling video drivers and just like that it works perfect

its funny how drivers go bad like armpits if you dont reinstall deoderant everyday
