-fix the game to run in fullscreen mode. *Freeze at loading screen fix*
Open the folder where GtaIV.exe is placed on your computer. this can be found with steam by rightclicking the game in your libary and clicking on properties. find "open file location"and left click it. Find the file GTAIV.exe and right click it to get into properties. (somtimes you have to load this twice to get to the compaibility tab) once you are here look for the disable fullscreen optimizations click box. have it checked and apply the settings.

Run the game in windows vista Service Pack 2.

-Best launch options that I have ever used. *IMO the best*
Right click the game in your steam library. Left click on properties. then left click on set launch options.

copy and paste this next line into the box.

-nomemrestrict -norestrictions -refreshrate 60

(If your game crashes lower the refreshrate to 50-30 depending on the CPU)
