When you are running your Windows 7 via BootCamp you do need to do things for Windows like Run As Administrator, set compatibility modes. etc, just like you would if you were running Windows 7 on a Dell or whatever other brand of laptop.
For GTA 3 set the Run as Administrator and the compatibility as Windows 98/ME.
You can also try turning off DEP:

GTA3 requires at least 12MB of available video memory
Trying to find a solution on it here and online but I can’t find one for this problem. I’m on Windows 7 with normal specs. Changing the compability with windows xp (service pack 2) doesn’t work for me. Why they sell a game that doesn’t work, even when its old?
Can somebody help me with this?

Hmmm works fine with me.
Done all the standard stuff?
Verify install
Re-install game
Verify DirectX
Verify video card drivers are latest
Change Rez or colour depth on display

Nothing of all.. but anyway got it fixed..
For people with the same problem I removed the Logmein mirror driver, maybe it works too for you.

Not really a joke. I just read somewhere it could be the problem. Because I don’t use LogMeIn anymore and already deinstalled it, it was safe for me to delete the mirror drive. Don’t ask me why it worked, I have no idea.

Why you don’t just search next time?

Silent is not a random person. You can’t even imagine how much time he wasted to fix GTA games.

Excuse me for not uploading this DLL in any proper place, it’s still in testing phase so I wanted to be able to update/purge it at any time

This is the fix i used and it worked for me and i also have a 4GB video card and I’m running 64-bit windows 7.
If you’re still having issues getting GTA VC or GTA 3 to work HERE IS THE FIX YOU’VE BEEN LOOKING FOR!! This fix works on both GTA VC and GTA 3, First change your data execution prevention settings by going to control panel, system and security, then click advanced system settings. Once that window opens click on the advanced tab. Under that you’ll see performace with a button to change the settings. Open that and click the tab for Data Execution Prevention, Select turn on DEP for all programs and services except those i select and add GTA3 to the list by clicking add and browsing to the installed directory and selecting the GTA3.exe and also GTA VC if you’re having the same issue with it as well and then hit apply. Lastly click on your start button and search for regedit and run that, once that opens change value to EmulationOnly=0 instead of =1 under the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftDirectDraw. It will enable directdraw for 32bit when i couldnt change the option through dxdiag even though it directdraw showed it was enabled under my 64bit settings in dxdiag. Hope this helps! Let me know if this helps you as well or message me if you needed further assistance. Also set your compatibility settings to windows 98/Windows ME and check the box to run as admin hit apply, lastly launch the game and enjoy.

Grand Theft Auto III requires at least 12MB of available video memory and on vice city cant run too. help i try compatibility mode, my video card is hd6950 2gb and win8.1

Having the same issue. The only fix I found this far is playing it on an older computer. I think it either can’t handle the gargantuan amount of 4GB of VRAM or the awesomeness that is 64-bit. Anyway, I hope to be able to play it on this pc as well.

Hi all
I am running Windows 7 32-bit on my mid 2011 MacBook Pro (Sierra) and trying to play GTA3. I get this message:
«gta3 requires at least 12mb of available video memory»
I have googled for answers and tried «Compatibility Modes» and «Run as Administrator» but I think these suggestions are for PCs. I think my problem might be in the BootCamp drivers
Any suggestions?
cheers

Upgrade Video Ram
Hello.I’ve been trying to play Tropico 6 on my Mac with no success. My Video RAM is 1.5GB, and the game requires 2GB. I’ve attached the breakdown of my Mac 2014. Is there anyway to upgrade my Video Ram? I know alot of people on Stream is having this issue as well, so I don’t know why Kalypso doesn’t release a patch. I spent so much time waiting for the game to load and trying to get it to work, that I didn’t qualify for a refund! Maddening!!!!
Any help anyone could give would be greatly appreciated.

Well I didn’t need those, its working now after installing the right Boot Camp drivers for my machine. However the previous things you mentioned — «compatibility mode» and «run as administrator» are in the mix
Cheers!
Jun 18, 2019 12:04 AM in response to rcosta887
Just an update with this — It needs to be set to «Run As Administrator» but in «Compatibility Mode» it works with everything else except Windows 98/ME, there is an issue with the Logitech dual action gamepad (but it might work with other gamepads)
The issue with the 12mb of video memory was resolved with correct Boot Camp drivers but rcosrta887 your suggestions help solve problems I didn’t know I had until the game worked so I will mark this topic as solved

Скачал я, значит, репачёк «Red Faction 2 — Class Rip» с зэпайратбэй (размер 186мб). На других сайтах все RF2 образами по 1гб+, а интернет ну очень плохой, поэтому решил выбрать то, что по-меньше. Распаковалось всё нормально. Запускаю. Зависает чёрный экран, по центру курсор. Сворачиваю. Появилось сообщение, цитирую: «At least 8 MB of available video memory is required to run Red Faction!» Поискал на англ. форумах эту фразу — кто-то дал ссылку на purefaction.org, мол там патч, который избавляет от проблемы. Скачал патч, называется «Pure_Faction_3.0_Setup». Патч, видимо, для RF, а не для RF2, т.к. при попытке установить пишет: «NOTE: If Next is greyed out, Red Faction is not installed in the folder you have selected.» На этом энтузиазм как-то иссяк, решил написать сюда.
Жду Ваших советов, господа.Последнее редактирование: 13 апр 2011

granTFunk, это же патч для Red Faction 1.
———- Сообщение добавлено в 13:44 ———- Предыдущее сообщение размещено в 13:42 ———-
Можно попробовать поставить официальный патч 1.01 (http://dlh.net/cgi-bin/patdl.cgi?lang=eng&sys=pc&file=rf2p101e.zip), но, во-первых, не факт, что встанет на рип, во-вторых, маловероятно, что поможет.
-
MisterGrim, спасибо, попробую. Если не поможет, то, наверное, буду качать не репак…
-
Надо иметь в виду, что, возможно, проблема вовсе не в репаке, а в новом железе.

Установился патч (указал директорию), теперь просит диск для запуска. =)

Birm, допускал, что дело в размере репака и из-за за этого проблемы. Глупо, наверное.

PavelDAS и kreol нравится это.

granTFunk, игра официально локализована у нас в стране и массово продаётся. Нормальную полную английскую версию наверняка можно скачать с 3dsl. Ввиду этих обстоятельств действительно совершенно непонятно, зачем ты скачиваешь неизвестно какие (и даже неизвестно чего) «репаки» и какой помощи ты по ним ждёшь.
-
kreol, о том, что полную английскую версию можно скачать с 3dsl я не знал, как обычно зашёл на сайт и скачал меньшую по размеру. На счёт помощи… создал новый раздел на харде, поставил туда второй системой XP — всё нормально запускается (оказалась как раз английская версия). Получается дело в ОС. Ну или каким-то образом в репаке, хотя в этом сомневаюсь.
