[gamerphionix]

Help me!!! when ever i open GTAVC it keeps on saying "Grand Theft Auto VC cannot find enough available video memory". Tell me what I should do PLEASE!.

Your graphics card may not be good enough. Or your Direct X version isn't high enough. Or you need to update your graphics card drivers

[TommyGun]

Most likely ur garphics card i had the same problem with Wolfenstine

[Quagmire II]

That same thing happened to me a couple times with an old video card... if I played another game like NeverWinter Nights first... When I restarted my computer it worked again

[rappo]

ive got a 48 mb graphics card

if yours is worse... that must suck.

my game runs.... so if you have more than 48 mb, then either you have little ram/cpu power, you dont have the latest version of directx, you don't have the correct .dll files, or you're on an unsupported OS

[.:Mouldy Punk:.]

I think the latest version of direct X is 9 or 9.1 so go on the microsoft website and look around for Direct X

I have 32mb on my graphics card and it works fine. As rappo said it could be your RAM or CPU.

[rappo]

yeah, its probably not CPU because CPU isn't really memore

the new version of direct x is something like 9.0b... or 9.1b, so that's what i recommend. some newer games won't even allow you to play the game without this version, so it's always nice to have it. always available at microsoft.com or you can search on google

If there's not enough available video memory, it means your graphics card is too old to support the game. Do you know what card you have?

[rappo]

o right... thats what video means :p

well Quagmire II said this:

and i saw another post by him somewhere saying that he has a 16 Mb card... and his game runs.

but maybe his is less than 16mb... who knows.

[.:Mouldy Punk:.]

yeah i remember that post. the 16 mb card that worked might be a top of the range 16 mb card but this card mite not be top of the range or its a budget card

[Jay Squirrel]

well i got 32mb graphics card DirectX 9.0 128mb and intel celeron processor and vice works but the frames jump and the games background goes weird. But my bro has everything the same exept he has intel pentium 4 512mb RAM and works the best
