GTA V issue - AMD enduro does not work and crashes on startup

Hey Guys i have a problem while running GTA V...
after launching the launcher and launching GTA5.exe ....
nothing happens for 30 to 40 seconds then suddenly an error pops up that GTA5 has stopped working...
after searching on forums etc i found a fix that to disable ur AMD or NVIDIA 3D card and run the game on intel card will fix the problem...
but it did not work and i got another error "ERR_GFX_D3D_INIT" in the description of which it was written that "please reboot and restart your game might fix the problem"...
One more thing that my username has no special character in it....
If anyone knows how to fix this issue then kindly please reply here....
and i have tried running this game on every driver like 14.12 Omega, 15.3 and 15.4 beta
I have Acer Aspire E1-572G with:
AMD radeon R7 M265 2GB dedicated
8GB DDR3 SDRAM
500 GB HDD
Intel Core i5 4200U @ 2.6GHz

 

It's an issue a lot of people are having, myself included, afraid you'll have to wait for a patch from rockstar or a hotfix driver from AMD

 

I Hope they release soon...because i dont want my 60$ to go straight into trash

 

Have the same problem. I tried a number of 'fixes' but none seem to work. Anyone got it working with a 8970m?

 

I was having that error until I turned off the PCI-E link power saving stuff. Windows power options>change plan setting>change advanced>PCI express>link power management > off.

 

I checked, but it turns out I already have Link power management turned off.

 

This fix work?

 

It didn't work for me, 8970m and hd 4600.

 

thats the exact issue im having with the game that exact error
can happen on bootup / startup / in game / randomly in game....

freaking joke thats what it is.

Anyone tried this?

 

For me don't work :wanker:

 

So apparently rockstar are working on a fix for this, maybe out on tuesday?

I mean, it only took rockstar about 5 days to even acknowledge the problem, and this is only through a forum post, whereas the profile character issue appeared as a steam news post.

So patch maybe tuesday? You can check the steamdb and see that the beta test branch is ahead of the main game.

Would love to be able to not play it in 800x600 lowest settings with no shadows.

 

If you have any kind of usb game controller connected, disconnect it. It is a known error, I had the exact same problem.

 

Same here

I can't start GTA.
I Think AMD Radeon R7 M265 gives the problems.
AMD solve this ASAP !!!

 

can't you just disable the Intel iGPU in the BIOS and run the laptop completely off the AMD GPU?

 

This isn't really how the technology works.

The AMD GPU runs through Intel which is connected to the screen.

Older tech was able to accomplish this but due to cost reasons such configs do not really exist anymore.

 

Here's what worked for me on Intel HD4000 and AMD 8750M:
In settings.xml I changed DirectX version to 0 and resolution to 800x600. After that I assigned a "Power saving" profile to GTA5.exe in Switchable Graphics and launched the game as usual.

Obviously it's working on an Intel HD4K so FPS isn't good and I didn't play much because of this. Just waiting for a fix from AMD or R*. AFAIK R* fixed this issue for NVIDIA switchable cards with their latest patch.

 

Sounds to me like it was still using the Intel card if you didn't get good performance.

A lot of users didn't have any luck.

It seems like R* is aware of the issue and will hopefully fix it soon.

 

Yeah, edited my reply to clarify some things
Game simply won't run on AMD switchable cards without some kind of fix from R* or AMD.

 

Btw, you can remove shadows from the game by setting <ShadowQuality value="0" />

With this you get about 5fps more, making it very much playable (though still looking like crap)

Enable FXAA and AFx16 as these don't have a performance hit.

One issue it still has is the severe stuterring when you move too fast though
