San Andreas problems

demon16 · July 26th, 2005

I recently bought Gta:San Andreas for PC and installed it.Everything went smoothly when running the game until my pc wants to shutdown after a few minutes of gameplay and gives me some error message involving driver_irql_not_less_or_equal and cmuda.sys and restarts after dumping the physical memory.

PS: My pc specs r :
p4 3.2 ghz
512 ram
ati 256mb radeon 9250
120gb hdd
directx 9c
with 5.7 catalyst drivers
So it should run but it doesn't thanx for the help in advance

did a quick google search and got this; http://www.experts-exchange.com/Hard..._20837201.html Sounds like these guys know what they are doing, it should help.

Not really I tried all that and the error I get involves the file cmuda.sys

I am tring to find my camera so hopefully I'll be able to post a photo.

I would've left it in software, but oh well :P.

Could you quote the exact error?

Sorry about the delay I couldn't find my digicam so I used my phone so sorry about the poor quality. Anyway what I know so far is that it is my sound card and I have tried uninstalling the driver but San Andreas needs a sound card for some reason and I have tried disabling DSP in Xear software. Any help is appreciated thanx.

Very strange indeed... I'll do a bit of research on this and get back to you.

I don't have that kind of problem in GTA:SA. My issue, at least with the Catalyst 5.7, is that all the human characters in the game are the colour of the sky, they have no texturing on them. So, I don't know what to do. My elder bro has the 4.12's installed, and it works fine. But, I don't want to downgrade drivers....and I saw that demon16 is using the Cat 5.7 drivers, and he didn't mention this glitch. Maybe there is something you did that I didn't?

I've done a bit of browsing around and found that driver_irql_not_less_or_equal is a non-contextual to SA bug, meaning theres nothing wrong with your GTA:SA. However, the error means that one of the drivers on your computer is not calculating memory correctly. From the research I've done doing a simple repair should fix it right up.

Either that or your RAM or processor has gone bust...

Sorry about reviving but San Andreas works after doing alot of stuff including a clean win xp install but to no avail. So I got a new sound blaster live! 24 bit sound card and then I find out that San Andreas had no proper support for my onboard c-media sound card and should hopefully be fixed in the next patch!

Thanks to everyone that helped.
