Try to set gta_sa.exe to compatibility mode XP (service pack 3, if I remember) and run as administrator.

(rechtermuisknop eigenschappen op gta_sa.exe > compatibiliteit tab en daar dat doen)

No, had use before win8 and samp could give only 90 fps with lags, although on win7 it gives 100 easily. Only 60 fps on win8  :'(

Maybe important for the people who also have this problem is to tell in your first post how you solved it.

Would say that Miko could tell it then, he made it work for me via Teamviewer.
