Issues Running GTA San Andreas on IBM Cloud Virtual Machine

  • 1.  Issues Running GTA San Andreas on IBM Cloud Virtual Machine

    Posted Mon February 03, 2025 10:06 AM

    Hey everyone,

    I recently set up a Windows virtual machine on IBM Cloud to test some applications, including San Andreas. However, I'm running into some issues:

    • The game installs fine, but crashes on launch.
      Sometimes, it runs but lags heavily, even though the VM has enough resources.
      I tried adjusting compatibility settings and installing DirectX, but no luck.

    Could this be due to GPU limitations in IBM Cloud's VMs? Has anyone successfully run games on IBM Cloud, or is there a workaround? Any advice would be appreciated!

    Thanks in advance.
