Is it really sad and fanboyish of me to just want GTA V to essentially be a remake of Vice City on the new engine? (yes).

Something like... this?

Are there any good solutions for playing 3/VC windowed? SA has a DX9 proxy DLL, but the other games use DX8, and forcing it windowed with 3danalyzer just doesn't work.

(I like to multitask :()

You could give D3DWindower a go, I think I remember reading people got the GTA games to work with it. You can get a (partly translated) english version here.

Awesome, San Andreas seems to just get stuck in a seemingly infinite loop of UAC prompts when I try to launch it. Tried verifying the game data and Steam redownloaded ~1 gig of data but it didn't help at all. I also tried disabling UAC temporarily and it still didn't launch. All drivers are up to date as well.

Any idea what the problem might be? Specs are:

Windows 7 64bit
i5 2400
4gb RAM
Radeon 6850HD

Have you tried setting gta-sa.exe to run as administrator?
