Gta 5 Freezes on pressing ESC(pause button) while driving or flying

[Dominic_5]

Recently,my Gta V has some pretty big issues .When i drive or fly an airplane and i pause,my computer freezes and i must restart my PC.The game is unplayable like this and id like to know how to fix this.Thanks.(Here are my specs)

OS:Windows 8.1 64-bit
CPU:AMD FX 8320
GPU:AMD Radeon R9 270x (Gigabye OC Edition with 2GB of VRAM)
RAM:8 GB RAM(Single Channel)
MotherBoard:GA-990FXA-UD3
AMD GPU Driver:16.6.1


Also,if it makes a big diffrence,i got the pirated version of GTA V(Reloaded one) with the latest update appeared to date.

P.S:I play the game on high settings and very high reflections,DirectX 11 and the limit of VRAM is exceeded lightly.

I hope you understand everything i wrote and i hope that its going to be responded quickly to this thread.Thank you for you attention!

For the standalone, Rockstar Warehouse version:
Hit "Start", "Run", and type "cmd" without the quotes. Hit enter.
Type "cd c:\Program Files\Rockstar Games\Grand Theft Auto V" without the quotes in the cmd window that pops up. Hit enter.
Note: If you’ve installed the game to a different directory, enter that directory instead.
Type "GTAVLauncher.exe -verify" in this window (no quotes again) and hit enter.

if you have a cracked steam version try reinstalling.

Why should I reinstall the game? Did it happen to you too? I got the reloaded one(steam) and it would be nice if there could be another way than just reinstall it for the steam one. Thanks.

try changing the directx from 11 to 10 (also not the 10.1)

if that did not work try this:
1. Go to: Documents\Rockstar Games\GTA V and then open the file settings.xml with notepad.
2. Hit Ctrl+F, a search box will appear, type "dx" in that( without quotes) and hit Enter.
3. You should see this line there:
<DX_Version value="1" />
Simply change the value from "1" to "0". Don't change anything else.
4. Save the file, exit notepad and restart the game.
