Error Finding "gta_sa.exe".

[Fridder]

Hi. This is a problem where I can't open (or play) MTA:GTA. When I press on MTA San Andreas on my Desktop, this comes up:

When I press "Local Disk (C:)", and go to "Program Files", and go to "MTA San Andreas" folder, this comes up:

and it says that for EVERY folder I go to. Now, Look at this URL: (describes my problem easily)>> http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh98/frakismyname/gtasanandreashelp3.jpg?t=1277047975. Press that link, it's a picture. You might want to Right click it and press "Open link in new tab" if you can. So, I'm not the only one having this problem. I hope to get it fixed soon. Thank you.

Does single-player work for you? If not I'd suggest reinstalling the game. gta_sa.exe is normally located in the folder where you install the game, not MTA's.

I cannot even open the game. I reinstalled this game about 10 times. I installed it in the file, "Program files", "MTA San Andreas" folder. That's where I'm stuck. Please help, and I'm all new to this stuff. Speak English, not programming to me.

Why does it seem to me that you do not even have San Andreas?

[Fridder]

I do have it.. The screenshots are there to prove it. Do you have teamviewer? Maybe you could help me out that way.

Please read this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Thef ... an_Andreas

MTA requires this game to run. MTA is not a game, it is an application which is made to run in combination with San Andreas.

I read the link. I don't understand ... Do you have a yahoo that I can IM you with? I don't have AIM I'm very confused.

It's simple, to play Multi Theft Auto: San Andreas you must buy the game Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas. Example: http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/570863/ ... Price&fb=0

[Mr.Hankey]

You are supposed to locate your GTA:San Andreas install directory in that dialogue which is usually something like this: "C:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto San Andreas"

If you don't have GTA:San Andreas installed MTA won't work.
