Why does this happen while playing gta 4??

You cant play GTA IV with 1 gb ram.I also faced this problem.The textures of gta iv are bigger.the total real time processing data will be more than 1 gb so that it can contain the whole textures.After I added another 1 gb of ram the problem got dis appeared.9400 GT is a good one.Upgrade the ram and I assures you that the problem will get solved.

Yeah u need to add more ram....

Does the buildings and other stuffs appear when they r closing near?

I think it's the problem of draw distance setting!

Just set it to maximum but it will have a huge impact over game performance cuz GTA 4 demands a huge hardware resources! Even the most powerful graphic cards can't handle this game much...some lags occur though!

It can be also a driver issue...don't forget to upgrade ur graphic card driver.

Peace!

ur ram is too low to run such a big game u need 4gb of ram to run GTA 4 and i recomend to use 2 gb graphic card

I have heard this asked by other people before, it seems that it is normal for it to be making that sound. One of my friends had this problem aswell and contacted Rockstar and they suggested that it might result from long gaming sessions and that maybe he should take a break every few hours. Other than that you should be fine, I remember when I played FFXI on mine i'd occasionally hear it too but nothing bad came from it.

hey your graphic card must be below 128 mb or 180 mb i think which is the gta 4's graphic requirment just check it

Probably a memory leak issue. Make sure all your other aplications are closed and if that does not work, turn down the graphic details.

hey body don't worry about this just replace your Graphic card I mean use ATI HD 4670 or geforce 9600gt your game will run better and tell me your CPU specification for more help

Upgrade your RAM and graphics to at least 2GB

Your ram is too low! way too low for such a giant game.

you need atleast 2gb for this monster gta4.

1GB is enough cause you running XP. but you need to tone down the graphics settings to like bare minuim..
