Select Settings Tab
Select Advanced Properties
Select GeForce Tab
Select Additional Properties
Select Direct3D Setting Tab
Tick "Enable Fog Table Emulation"

What resolution are you trying to play the game at...cause a geforce2GO with 32mb of ram is kinda skimpy for GTA =/

Exclamation Well i got 2 problems

I got two problems, the two apply to my computer and only one applies to my laptop! the first is that on my pc i have a voodoo5 card and i thought that it wouldnt work that great like it did, but i saw someone post o gta3forums.com that his worked fine! adn the other problem that i get on both my pc and laptop is the unhandled exception error, but its not the same one that take2games has on the support website the address is different!
