So i downloaded GTA 4 from direct 2 drive last night. I dont really like using them for some reason, but the game was on sale for like $7 or something. Now i am trying to install it this morning and i keep getting an error saying my computer is incompatible with GTA 4. Any thoughts? I've heard the installation on the PC is very bad but i just dont understand whats wrong.

Macbook pro unibody-2.4ghz C2D, 4GB DDR3, 9600mGT 256, Windows 7 HP

Thanks in advance guys

yeah, it doesn't mention windows 7 is supported, but i assume it is. Everything else seems ok.

Game runs fine in win 7...

Your specs meet the requirements but as others have said it may be the fact its a mac....

yeah i'd be inclined to agree, but I have plenty of windows only games on here already: borderlands, left 4 dead 2, WiC, this really is a windows computer when it's running windows. Although the logic board and such are custom made by apple, the chipset contained is not. Neither is the C2D processor, the popular 9600m, or the hard drive.

Of course that was all unnecessary talk because i just watched a video of a 13in aluminum MACBOOK run it. Notice the lack of PRO and therein a dedicated graphics card. Sorry i just made this such a complex problem now.
