    I saw this as a solution to the same problem on the m11x r3 in a youtube comment


    Just download this text file I made, and put it in the same GTA 4 directory that the .exe's are in.

    commandline.txt

    Also, before I did that. I completely uninstalled and deleted my drivers, then installed 275.33 on Bios A03, and whitelisted GTA4.exe AND Rockstar Games Social Club to both run on the NVIDIA GPU, and it worked. It just shows that I have 200mb of VRAM, but runs all maxed out at 25-30fps :p
