What to do if GTA SA does not work. Professions in GTA: San Andreas. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas lags. Large delay when playing. Solution
Description
If your mouse does not work in GTA San Andreas or Vice City, there is no reason to worry, it is easy to fix. A non-working mouse is a common mistake among players with new processors starting from 4 cores. It begins to appear on new versions of Windows 8.1 and 10.
The problem is the multi-core nature of the new processors and their poor compatibility with the game. The treatment is simple, you need to run the game on 1 processor core.
What to do if the mouse does not work in GTA San Andreas?
Method 1
1. Launch the game and minimize it.
2. Turn on Task Manager (to turn it on, press Ctrl + Alt + Delete)
3. Find the gta_sa.exe process there
4. Right-click on it and select “Details” (we skip this item on Windows 7) 
5.Right-click on gta_sa again and select “Set similarity” as in the screenshot.
6. After this, we will see the selection of processor cores that are used in San Andreas, uncheck all the checkboxes and leave only one (so that only one core works, for example, near “CPU 0”)
Fans of GTA San Andreas are faced with an unpleasant situation when, after installation, the game does not start. Or errors appear during the installation process. Let's figure out what the reason is and fix the problem. The methods outlined in the article are suitable not only for GTA San Andreas. If this is not enough, the problem remains unresolved, read other materials on the site.
GTA San Andreas won't install
If GTA San Andreas does not install, check to see if you have enough free space on your hard drive. The distribution requires free space, so a few gigabytes of extra space will not hurt. Many modern games require a significant amount of space.
Installation of GTA San Andreas is blocked by antivirus
Often, anti-virus programs, in the fight against viruses, protecting our computer from external threats, for security purposes, block numerous processes performed by the operating system. Sometimes such security is so strong that the antivirus blocks access not only to viruses, but also suspends some normal processes, perhaps by mistake, considering them potentially vulnerable. Disable your antivirus during installation.
Cleaning your computer and rebooting
Sometimes, a simple system reboot can immediately solve many problems that arise both during the installation of games and their subsequent operation. The same goes for programs and applications. There are many reasons: the computer is full of garbage, the system cache is full, the maximum permissible number of simultaneously running processes, perhaps some are frozen and are not running, but they put a strain on the system. Cleaning your computer and rebooting will fix the situation.
No Internet access
Some game clients require an Internet connection during the installation process, providing access to the installation server or update server. Make sure the connection is good, and if there is no Internet, be prepared for problems when installing GTA San Andreas. It's good if the system displays an error message. And if there is none, you can think for a long time and wonder why the toy is not installed.
GTA San Andreas won't start
Before looking for reasons why GTA San Andreas does not start, make sure that the installation itself was successful. Otherwise, if there were failures during the installation process, but at the same time the game was installed, it is impossible to guarantee subsequent launch and performance. If it starts, you're lucky. What will happen next is unknown. Review the installation process.
Reinstalling the game
Many gamers have more than once encountered a situation where they had to reinstall games. Apparently this is the case where re-installing GTA San Andreas will fix the problem. It is unknown what this is connected with, perhaps the antivirus or firewall “ate” some files or something else during installation, but after installing the game again, it starts and works. Uninstall GTA San Andreas and install again, paying attention to every detail during this process. Perhaps at some point the program will request additional files, etc.
There are times when installing on top of an already installed game solves the situation. The installer may prompt you to update the files. Thus, there is no need for removal. Well... something like that.
Searching for information by error text
Another option. Problems when starting GTA San Andreas are usually accompanied by a corresponding system message. Specify the text of the error in the search, as a result of which you will receive the most detailed answer, and, moreover, related to this specific problem. Actually, the solution will not be long in coming. This way you can pinpoint the cause and fix the problem.
By the way, for some reason I always forget about this. Until I turn over the whole computer. But this one the method works 92%. You just need to enter the text into the search and find a useful article. This way you will definitely solve the problem, there is no need to send your PC to a workshop ahead of time and incur additional costs. There is a lot of useful material on the Internet - study it.
Running GTA San Andreas as administrator
Run the game as administrator. In our case, to run GTA San Andreas as an administrator, you need to right-click on the game shortcut and select Run as administrator. Subsequently, if this method helps solve the problem, make it the default. Open the Shortcut Properties, in the Compatibility tab, and check the box Run this program as administrator.
GTA San Andreas is not compatible with the system
Another obstacle to running GTA San Andreas may be incompatibility with your operating system. In this case, still there, in the Shortcut Properties, add a checkbox Run the program in compatibility mode, select the desired OS from the drop-down list.
.NET Framework not installed
A very serious problem with running GTA San Andreas is the lack of the .NET Framework library installed on the computer, which ensures the launch and maintains the functionality of programs and applications, including games. This is a prerequisite and Microsoft .NET Framework must be installed on your PC.
There are different versions of the .NET Framework. The presence of any one of them on the computer cannot sufficiently guarantee the correct operation of the program. If, for example, the library is already installed on your computer, but the game requires it, download and install it. Restart your PC. The previous version will not be deleted or overwritten. They will simply work together.
Use programs that will prepare your computer for the game to run properly and help you avoid many problems and errors.

Availability of DirectX
Perhaps the most important condition, the requirement that must be met for games, including GTA San Andreas, is the presence of . Without it, not a single toy will work. Almost all distributions that require DirectX installed already include this set.
As a rule, DirectX is installed automatically during installation. If it is not included in the distribution, download and install it. It is not necessary to do this before installation, you can do it after, but it is simply necessary to have it on your computer. Download links are located above.
What to do if GTA San Andreas does not work?
Do not despair if you have already tried all the methods and nothing helps, the game does not work. Perhaps these tips will seem too vague, incomprehensible, errors are still present. Review again, did you do everything correctly? If necessary, download another GTA San Andreas distribution; if purchased in a store, contact the seller (manufacturer) for help. Maybe the disk is damaged or something is missing. This is normal, quite natural, this happens. Use another distribution and install the game again.
As a last resort, there are situations when the operating system is still incompatible with GTA San Andreas. Update the system using Windows (via Update Center). The game will work. If the manufacturer has indicated compatibility, then he is responsible for it. Update your operating system.
Reinstalling the OS is a last resort. Not sure about statements like "the operating system is pirated... the assembly... will not work..." or "the toy is hacked, pirated - throw it away...". A point that is worth your attention is to remember whether similar problems have arisen with other games, in particular those similar to GTA San Andreas. And if problems were observed, this indicates that it may be time to update or reinstall something in the system. Thank you for your attention!

(found everywhere on city streets, finding a car is not difficult)
Target: carry only 50 passengers
Reward: All taxis now have nitro acceleration, as well as a special jumping device (activated by the signal button)
The simplest profession. The passenger must be taken as quickly and carefully as possible to where he wants to go. He doesn’t care what route the taxi takes him - he can safely rush along the oncoming lane or along the sidewalk, scaring passers-by. However, if, as a result of such driving, the car catches fire, and where it passed, there are downed pedestrians lying around, then you will not see either the money or the client.
In addition, from now on there is a counter in the corner of the screen showing how much tip the passenger is willing to give for the trip. The amount directly depends on the delivery speed and the number of collisions. As usual, the time to complete the mission is limited, and for transporting several people in a row, you will receive a cash bonus. Having worked as a taxi driver at the beginning of the game, you can not only earn starting capital, but also thoroughly explore the city.
Police officer
The hard work of a policeman GTA consists of searching and neutralizing criminals. The serial number of the level corresponds to the number of violators who must be caught in a certain time. At every fourth level, starting from the fifth, the crime rate in the state increases sharply, and there are more and more cars with fugitives.
The choice of how to “neutralize” bad people is yours. As for the means of transportation, the HPV1000 police motorcycle is the best option at first, since, sitting on it, you can sit behind the criminal’s car and leisurely shoot him. The Hunter helicopter, as in the previous part of the game, turns a tense chase into a lazy shooting of targets.
Vehicle:(look in hospital parking lots, you can also shoot a couple of passers-by - doctors will appear soon)
Target: complete 12 levels
Reward: Maximum health increases to 150 units
Despite the simple task (taking patients to the hospital), completing this mission spoiled the nerves of thousands of gamers. Why? Firstly, driving an ambulance is not easy as it has a bad habit of flipping over at the first opportunity. Secondly, the time to complete the mission is strictly limited.
In addition, the car can accommodate three patients, so starting from the fourth level, dying people will have to be delivered in several stages. You can name many more difficulties that prevent you from saving the lives of patients, but here are a couple of tips - don’t rush too much; slow down when turning; stay as close to the “client” as possible; move away as soon as the patient gets into the car; plan your route thoughtfully. This mission is easiest to complete in small towns such as Angel Pine.
Vehicle:(fry the people around you with Molotov cocktails - the firefighters will arrive immediately)
Target: complete 12 levels
Reward: the main character cannot be burned
Another friend from before GTA-game mission. The job of a firefighter is simple: get to a burning car and extinguish it with a stream from a cannon mounted on a fire truck. Just don’t rush to leave for the next call! Burning passengers will run out of the car and they also need help. At every fourth level, starting from the fifth, another flaming car is added. While carrying out this mission, try not to attract the attention of law enforcement officers. If the cops manage to get you out of the car, the mission will fail. It will also stop if you leave the fire cabin or if a burning person dies from fire or under the wheels of a car.
Burglar thief
Vehicle: a special “thieves’” version of the van (look for it in Los Santos - across the road from the gym near Karl’s house in Ganton; in San Fierro - in an alley near the driving school in Dougherty; in Las Venturas - in the west of the city, in an alley nearby with road junction)
Target: rob property worth $10,000
Reward: money received from selling stolen goods, as well as $3,000 + endless sprint
To try yourself as a thief, you need to get into a special type of Boxville van between 20:00 and 6:00. If you have already completed the task “”, then you should have learned the basic skills of a burglar. Once the mission begins, a timer will appear showing how much time is left until dawn.
Go to any area with small private houses. Suitable houses are indicated by a yellow triangle. As soon as you cross the threshold of such a home, a noise indicator will appear on the screen. I don’t recommend running, shooting, hitting walls and getting noticed by the owners; in this case you will have 10 seconds before the cops arrive and reward you with 3 stars.
As you quietly sneak around the house, take with you everything that is not nailed to the floor - televisions, game consoles, video players and other household appliances. Don't forget about the money scattered around the rooms. Taking one item at a time, haul your loot back to the van. Now you can leave or continue your thieving business. When there is nothing left in the house that can be taken out except the owners themselves, move to their neighbors and “work” there. And so on until dawn.
Having finished these fascinating manipulations in the morning, take the goods to the garage indicated on the map. And remember: the sooner you start the mission, the more time you will have for the actual robbery.
Sitting in a black van on a dark night,
Go quickly to the residential area.
There, noticing a big cool house,
Sneak up to him and start hacking.
When you enter the house, a noise meter will appear,
So be careful, young raider.
Quickly take out a pistol with a silencer
And carefully go straight into the house,
Grab everything that is not screwed to the floor:
Money, set-top box, TV, radio.
If you manage before dawn,
Then this mission was a success for you!
Vehicle:(sometimes found on the roads, but easier to find in various parking lots)
Target: complete 10 levels
Reward: now prostitutes pay you for their services, and not vice versa, as usual
You have a limited time for each trip. First, deliver one of the girls to the client. While she's busy, take the other one to the second client. Then return to where you dropped off the first one and take her to the next man. Then go again to the second one and so on. The mission will end when you satisfy the needs of ten clients.
Sometimes people are rude and refuse to pay money for services rendered. In this case, hurry to help. You are given a little time to brutally kill the villain for mistreating the girl.
Vehicle:, (drive along the railway tracks to the nearest station and wait for the next train)
Target: make ten shipments
Reward: You can ride the train for free, and $50,000 won’t hurt!
Yes, the developers’ imagination is truly inexhaustible! No matter how crazy it may sound, in order to start this mission, you have to hijack a train (don't forget to first complete the story mission "").
Your task is to transport goods. From point A to point B, from B to C, etc. Contrary to expectations, the train is a delicate thing. You accelerate over 44 miles per hour, and that's it - the colossus crashes off the rails, and the mission will have to start all over again (after visiting the hospital). It should also be taken into account that the train not only accelerates slowly, but also slows down very slowly, so long before the station appears, you need to start slowing down.
Having arrived at your destination, do not relax and immediately go to the next one. Once you've completed the loop, you can board the train again to begin the second level, which consists of another ride through five stations. True, each time the time allotted for the trip will be less and less.
Hotel valet
Vehicle: any car you have to park in the parking lot of the Vank Hoff Hotel
Target: park 25 cars
Reward: hotel generating $2,000 daily
Only one who completes the mission “” and changes into the appropriate uniform can become a footman. Task: to park the cars of rich people who came to the Vank Hoff Hotel in the city of San Fierro.
This time, Karl is not alone in his desire to earn extra money. He will have to, ahead of other lackeys, jump into arriving cars and take them to the parking lot under the hotel. On the first level, you need to park 3 cars in two minutes. With each subsequent level, of which there are five in total, you need to park one more car.
For damage that the car received while parking, seconds are deducted from the bonus time. The amount of added time depends on how carefully and evenly the car was parked. For each competitor killed intentionally or accidentally, 20 seconds will be taken from your total time. So be careful and tolerant!
As a reward for completing this, you will receive... the hotel itself! In addition, while completing this mission, you can steal some rare limousine.
Vehicle: BMX in front of Roboi's Food Mart in Commerce, Los Santos; near Hippy Shopper in Queens, San Fierro; outside the Burger Shot in Redsands East, Las Venturas
Target: pass 4 levels
Reward: Roboi's Food Mart, Hippy Shopper and Burger Shot will start generating $2,000 each
You have to deliver special packages, throwing them into a luminous ring as you go, like pizza at Vice City. If you miss and the package does not hit the target, you will have a little time to pick it up and repeat the approach. The total time for delivery is limited, and all phases of the mission must be completed in strict sequence. To save time, plan your route using the map. After completing one of the levels, do not rush to get off your motorcycle or bicycle - after a short pause you will receive the next task.
Los Santos - There is a BMX bike parked in front of Roboi's Food Mart (Commerce District). Sit on it. Since the vehicle on which you will perform this mission is a bicycle, it will not hurt to be in good physical shape. If you know the city well, try to use all the paths that will help shorten the path. At the first level you need to deliver 3 packages in 3 minutes, on the second - 4 in 5 minutes, on the third - 5 in 5, on the fourth - 6 in 10 minutes. Don’t be embarrassed that after delivery you will have extra packages left - initially you are given 2-3 spare ones. As a reward for delivering all packages, Roboi's Food Mart will be yours!
San Fierro - near the Hippy Shopper (Queens area) there is a biker's dream, a Freeway motorcycle. In order not to fall off it at the slightest collision, upgrade your driving skills ahead of time. Freeway will quickly rush you along a straight highway, but be careful when turning. The number of packages that need to be delivered at each level is the same as in Los Santos (3, 4, 5, 6). The time allotted for levels one through four is 3, 5, 5 and 7, respectively. After completing the mission you will receive a Hippy Shopper store.
Las Venturas - Faggio is parked next to the Burger Shot in Redsands East. This scooter is small and very maneuverable, which will make it easier to avoid accidents. The disadvantage of Faggio is that it cannot develop high speed. I do not recommend anyone, except those who are suicidal, to drive onto busy highways, where fast-moving cars can easily end the mission. The time and number of deliveries are the same as in the previous city, only the last level of the mission takes 8 minutes. As usual, after passing you will receive real estate. This time - Burger Shot.
Vehicle:. . (no need to worry about cars, as they will be given out at the start of the mission)
Target: complete 8 cargo transportation missions
Reward:$10,000 and RS Haul will start generating $2,000 per day
This profession becomes available after completing the mission "". The job of ordinary drivers is to deliver RS Haul cargo to its intended destination, without asking any questions. The company itself is located in Flint County, near the Flint intersection.
Top tip: Before completing a mission, open a map of the state and plan your route in advance, and don’t miss any turns while driving. If there is no time limit on the task, take your time. When you try again, the destination changes randomly, although each level has its own characteristics.
- Delivery of goods within a limited time. If the player is late, he loses money. Reward - $1,000.
- Delivery of goods without any damage (they take money for them). There is no time limit. As a reward for careful delivery, you will receive $1,500.
- Delivery of illegal cargo. Attracts police attention (3 stars). After delivery - $2,000.
- Delivery of goods in a limited time to a particularly remote point. The reward for successful completion is $3,000.
- Delivery of fragile goods (that is, so that not a scratch remains). Reward - $4,000.
- Delivery of illegal cargo. Attracts police attention (3 stars). Success will bring you $5,000.
- Delivery of fragile goods. Time is limited. For your efforts you will receive $7,000.
- Delivery of very illegal cargo over a particularly long distance, right to Las Venturas. This time you will get 4 police stars. If you succeed in completing this mission, your account will be replenished with $10,000. In addition, you will become the owner of RS Haul.
Vehicle: Dozer, , (all means of transportation will be kindly provided by the employer)
Target: complete 7 quests at the quarry
Reward: money earned during missions, and the Hunter Quarry with an income of $2,000 per day
To be able to complete these tasks, you must first complete the mission "". The action takes place at Hunter Quarry in the vicinity of Las Venturas. Your main means of transportation will be Dozer (aka bulldozer) and Dumper (dump truck). There are seven missions to complete in total.
Mission 1. Reward: $500
You have exactly 3 minutes and 30 seconds to get into the bulldozer and remove seven stones from the path by throwing them off the cliff. Try to hit the red marker with stones and make sure that your bulldozer doesn’t fall there on its own. During the mission you will have to go up and down the slope.
Mission 2. Reward: $1,000
The enemy company left a gift in the form of four barrels of explosives. Your task is to push them with a bulldozer into a safe zone marked with a red marker. You will find the first explosive behind the office. Having moved it to a safe place, drive away quickly, because in a few seconds there will be a powerful explosion. All this must be done in one and a half minutes. The next one lies near the tap, keep it within 2 minutes 10 seconds. The third is near the grinding machine (2:20). Finally, the fourth bomb is at the very bottom of the pit.
Mission 3. Reward: $2,000
Now we need to catch up and kill the gangsters who planted the bombs in the previous mission. Good news: the bandits are driving a slow, clumsy dump truck, and you've only got 8 minutes. The bad news: you'll have to catch up with them in the same dump truck.
The best option: shoot the villains from the Uzi you took with you ahead of time. You can also try pushing someone else's dump truck into the water. In any case, when the damage bar of the enemy vehicle is filled to capacity, the mission will be completed.
Mission 4. Reward: $3,000
Continuing the plots of the previous two missions, the corpses of members of the enemy group end up in your car. You have to get rid of them in four minutes before the cops arrive. Once the mission starts, jump on the Sanchez parked nearby and drive along the main road first, then stay along the fence. When you get close to the blue dot on the map, go to the fence and climb over it.
There you will see a dump truck. Ride it to the destination marked with a red dot. Be careful - strong shocks can throw bodies out of the car, which will lead to mission failure. Having arrived at Hunter Quarry, go down to the lower tier, and when you see the fire, throw the corpses into it. To do this, back up close to the fire and lift the “luggage compartment”.
Mission 5. Reward: $5,000
Once again, the only means of transportation is a dump truck. This time it is necessary to deliver several kilograms of TNT to the runway at Verdant Meadows in three minutes. Plan your route, move carefully - barrels with explosives may fall out if hit hard. When you arrive, drop the dangerous cargo. The mission will end.
Mission 6. Reward: $7,500
Trouble again! Some bad people accidentally left a dozen barrels stuffed with explosives on the railroad tracks. In three minutes a train will pass along the road. Get into the bulldozer and rush towards the rails. By the time you arrive, you will have about 2 minutes to clear. Try to move the barrels two or three at a time.
The work is considered completed when there is not a single green dot left on the map and there is no arrow above any barrel. Try not to leave the bulldozer on the rails (why bother trying then?).
Mission 7. Reward: $10,000, Hunter Quarry
Once the mission starts, take the Sanchez and drive to the bulldozer marked on the map. Once in it, push the policeman's corpse and his motorcycle into the red marker. Now ride the Sanchez to the crane, control which and move the corpse, and then the motorcycle, to the back of the nearby dump truck.
Get into the dump truck and go to your next destination. The last thing you should do is dump the contents into the river. If you find it difficult to throw off a corpse and a motorcycle without drowning yourself, leave them on the shore, steal a car from the nearest road, and carefully push them into the water.
GTA "San Andreas" does not start - this is a big problem for fans of this series of computer games. Yes, the project managed to appeal to two generations of gamers, so for them this is simply a tragedy. But what actions should be taken if GTA does not start?
What is the game?
GTA San Andreas is a computer game released in 2005 by the British developer Rockstar. The game is available not only for personal computers, but also for other platforms: X-Box, PlayStation and the Android mobile operating system.
GTA is "for adults only", so we recommend that children do not play it. Few parents would want their child to kill people and steal cars in virtual reality. There is also an abundance of obscene language. Look carefully at the age restrictions when purchasing a game for your child.
Project Features
The main character of the game, Carl Johnson, must complete story missions to defeat the antagonist, police officer Frank Tenpenny. The plot has a large number of endings that make the game really exciting. During the process, he meets non-player characters who help him move forward. Starting with 300 bucks in his pocket, the player must survive in San Andreas.
Can't complete a difficult mission? Nobody canceled cheat codes! Believe it or not, you can catch up with a train on which members of an enemy gang are traveling in a flying car or jetpack. If you want to fly over Los Santos on a jet, just enter the required code. Cheats are freely available.
Why do players like GTA so much?
The gamer can drive a car, shoot from various weapons at members of enemy gangs, yakuza, police and even random passers-by. Skydiving and airplane flying are also fun. But if GTA San Andreas does not start, then, unfortunately, you will lose this joy. You can play other cult games, but it is the atmosphere of street life in the American ghetto that makes the passage special.
How to solve the problem?
Often players encounter such an unpleasant incident when GTA San Andreas does not start. What to do? There are a huge number of reasons for this problem. Firstly, if the game was downloaded from pirated sites such as Rutreker or Torrentino, then it is likely that the game will not start for other people who have downloaded GTA. Go to the forum and find out GTA "San Andreas". Follow the prompts from the participants to complete the necessary actions.
Have you looked into the minimum system requirements? If you have not done this, then visit the site from which you downloaded GTA San Andreas and compare the characteristics of your computer with the necessary requirements. If the specifications do not match, then try using programs that overclock the video card. Also, update DirectX.
The game's settings have probably gone wrong. You can reset them by deleting the gta_sa.set file from the system folder of this game. If the program starts, do not rush to rejoice, since all saved moments of the game will be deleted, and you will have to go through everything again.
If there are other accounts on your computer, then launch GTA with the one that has more rights. There is also another way: cleaning the computer registry. The most effective method is to delete the game and download another version. We recommend not deleting save files, as you will not have to play through the game from the very beginning.
A little advice: we do not recommend downloading games from torrent sites and other pirated sources. Believe me, the toy will not cause problems if you buy it in a store in your city or on online gaming platforms, such as, for example, Steam.
