Mafia the Game problem. probably with graphic card (ATI Mobility Radeon X2300)?
Heya.. I’ve been searching for an answer to this question all over the internet for about a week now, and I still haven’t found anything, so I thought, that I write here…
There’s absolutely no problems with MAFIA installation, as I know, many people do. Also, I’ve reinstalled it about five times, so don’t recommend that to me. When I open the game, then first of all, NOD32 determines something.. if you think, that it would help, if I wrote here, what it actually says, then I will write it here, but you gotta let me know. Besides, there’s nothing that could be a virus, I have original CD’s, right from Gathering of Developer’s. Then I close NOD32 form task manager, and open Mafia again (the last time nothing but the NOD note appeared). This time is almost the same, only without the NOD notification. When I look at the task manager processes, then Game.exe appears for a half of a second, but that’s all, and even that isn’t happening every time. Once, way back, about 3 months ago (:D) it gave me ‘Init error’. Then I looked up in the internet and Illusion Softworks had said, that most of the ‘Init errors’ comes from the graphic card drivers or not updated DirectX. DirectX is up to date, but here comes my problem, there’s just no drivers for my graphic card on ATI website. Ofcourse, I’ve looked from other sites but still notning normal..
Now clearly: If I open Game.exe, nothing happens, what to do? I would be very happy, if anyone would understand my messy speech and would help me.
My system specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo CPU 2.00 GHz
RAM: 2,00 GB
ATI Mobility Radeon X2300 (ATI Radeon Graphics Processor (0×7188 (I dunno what that ‘graphics processor’ thingie in the end means but…))
Motherboard: SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS CO., LTD. R25P
Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit Service Pack 1
Nah, seems that you don’t know much about MAFIA. There’s only two patches, and none of them is for Vista. About Vista compability, I can tell, that it ran on other peolple’s Vistas. On the game box, there’s ofcourse nothing told about Vista, the game was released in 2002, for christ sakes…
Thanks for answering anyway

I’m not sure.. might not be compatible w/ vista. Check the box it came in. Try going to the game website and see if there is an update or vista patch.
