Hey, guys!
I hate to create yet another thread for Grand Theft Auto V but I have no choice.

Yesterday, I installed Grand Theft Auto V.
And today, I ran it for the first time. I was very excited and NOTE: I plugged in my Xbox 360 controller so I can play with my controller.
This is my laptop we are talking about. I hate gaming on a laptop (Who wouldn't, right?)
So, the R* intro happened. It was cool. No biggie.
Then came the disclaimer screen. Alright.

And, then the game started loading. "Loading Story Mode" can be seen at the bottom right corner of the screen and there were some slideshow of pictures.

Then came the most annoying error of my life "Grand Theft Auto V has stopped working" and it wouldn't even give me an error code.

I tried different solutions that lay across the internet but to no avail.
Can someone please help a brother out?

It's bad enough I waited 2 years for this goddamn game to come out on PC. And now that I have it and can't play it.. this saddens me like bleepin' hell.

NOTE: The error is not a "Grand Theft Auto LAUNCHER has stopped working".
It is a "Grand Theft Auto V has stopped working". Although I doubt it makes a big difference.
