Daemon tools and
15:13, 12/04/2021
OK, I get GTA: San Andreas, và I start modding (changing it khổng lồ my preferences), & plan khổng lồ fire up the game. It starts loading, & then it shows "Disc Could not be Found or Authenticated" or something lượt thích that, & I just BOUGHT the game today. My computer I"m running it is:
=Unknown DVD ROM disc speed
=48x CD-ROM speed
=200 GB of data
=128MB of Video RAM (nVIDIA 5200)
=512MB RAM
This is pissing me off. Any advice?
EDIT: I got this at GameStop, & I"m trying lớn get this straightened out. If my mother would upgrade both PC"s for once, that"d be two birds with one stone.

Not khổng lồ double post, but I think a DVD-ROM drive sầu upgrade would be nice khổng lồ see. Any good places to buy one? Since I put it in the DVD-writer drive, it worked fine. But how it doesn"t run after install is beyond me.

Player HaterPosted June 8, 2005If you can wait while it ships www.newegg.com is the hands down best place online to buy hardware both in terms of prices & customer service.
I had a Acer 16X DVD-ROM that wouldn"t run the install software even after a firmware upgrade. Replaced with a cheapo Artec (what"s with all these similar brandnames
Sucks that I had to replace an otherwise good drive sầu with another just for 1 game... but that"s the way the cookie crumbles. Now I gotta paint the faceplate too so it matches...
So first try upgrading your drives drivers and/or firmware. If it still doesn"t work try a new one from www.newegg.com. You can always RMA it if there"s still issues.

I had the same problem, but I managed khổng lồ fix it.
Try running Windows in Safe Mode. (Keep hitting F8 while restarting untill the menu comes up.) If the game gets past the disk kiểm tra in safe mode, then you might have the same reason for the problem as I was having. I had some software running that prevented the authentication from going through. Not sure what it was. I just took out everything that didn"t look right in the boot list using msconfig, and the game started up just fine after a reboot.
Note: In my case, the game did not run in Safe Mode, because it could not recognize the audio card. You might be able lớn run SA from Safe Mode, depending on your hardware.

The way i run it is, go to my computer, than whatever drive the CD is in, cliông xã on it, & a popup should come on saying run gta san andreas và links and stuff. Now instead of clicking run san andreas, go to lớn browse dvd contents. Now something should pop up, & clichồng on install demoshield multi cd launch, and it opens. Thats how I fixed it.

Player HaterPosted June 8, 2005Same thing here too. All of my req"s are fine (I am using an 8x drive though), and all my drivers are updated. Tried in Safe Mode also. Along with any other help shown here prior lớn my post date.
Same message
As games become larger and have to lớn be pressed on khổng lồ DVD"s, I hope problems lượt thích this become less. Recently bought a game from a different publisher and developer on DVD và had limited problems. First one I"ve sầu owned on DVD actually besides this one. Quite frustrating. Rockstar"s games have sầu always been pretty much trouble không tính phí for me.
I hope there is a patch soon.
I guess a good question to ask would be how many people are using 8x drives lượt thích myself, và are having problems authenticating?
Thanks for any help.

I know the problem: I have a CD/DVD writer drive, và I think that"s one drive on the only computer that can run SA. And I believe it has got lớn go. The only drive sầu that had it installed, and now SA won"t run at all.
