Starting up SA-MP

[weeyin]

When i try to connect to a server i get this message:
Runtime error!

Program C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\GTA San Andreas\gta_sa.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.

Um im having the same problem, i double click Connect, then it shows the loading icon on mouse cursor, then the screen flashes but nothing happens.

First, completely uninstall GTA: SA and re-install it. Uninstall it using add and remove programs, then go to C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games (or where ever you installed it) and delete everything. Then install again. Downgrade and then see if it works.

Report back if it works.

Do you get an error message when trying to extract it?

Yep, but i figured someone will lend it to me over msn or something, so i deleted GTA SA, and tried to install, but then after a while says Error Installing, Sound File not found, and then it stops installing, guess cd is fucked, once i make money i will buy it again. But i hope the one i buy is not V3 cause i heard V3 of GTA SA is not downgradeable.
