Yes

I think there is no solution for this. Except downloading another software as Fraps or xfire.

Got the same problem, Im using fraps.

Yes but the thing is that when Im using fraps and try to SS it dosn't appear the chat list... If I want to make a forum report or smth like so I have to make a video with fraps..

Me too.... FFS, someone can help?

Tried... still not working

Fix your screen resolution. I have Windows 8 too and I had the same problem. Was fixed after I changed the resolution.

Depends on your monitor res. Resolution of GTA SA should be the same as that of your monitor.

Author is the problem solved, so i can help you ?

Not really.. When im trying to fix the GTA resolution it crash every single time..

Do you have any mods installed or things such as S0beit,CLEO etc ?
Try ;
Delete the set file from the User Files folder and make sure that the resolution you want is supported by your monitor. It's always best to match your desktop resolution with your in-game resolution.
Try running the game in Win98 Compatibility mode./ or try every single of them.
Re-install the game ( if you already did do not )
Update the DirectX. ( http://www.microsoft.com )
If you still got any issues let me know,there is alot of ways to fix the crashes, these are some of them.

Same thing happen to me (wish was the main cause i downgrade to Windows 7 again ),however the only solution is not to play as full screen,mean, when you In game press (ALT+Enter ) one time, and try to take ss .
--------------------------------

To anyone in the future who has this very same problem, you need to change your game's resolution to your current screen resolution or the screenshot can not be saved.

Grab the computer and throw it out the window.

I have windows 8 and i was unable to SS until i changed resolution as Richard said mine is on 1440x900x32 and it works perfect, try this resolution.
