Players using both Steam and retail versions have been experiencing technical issues, such as lengthy validation through SecuROM and incorrect graphics settings.
Speaking to GTAGaming, a Rockstar spokesperson confirmed the issues: "We are aware that a small number of fans are having problems running GTA IV on their PCs and we would like to assure them we are working to help solve these as quickly as possible.
"We would ask anyone that is encountering difficulties to contact their local technical support helpline for advice and recommendations… There is also a regularly updated technical support page available on the Rockstar Games website where there are many useful FAQs, and information on how to resolve some common problems being encountered."
The PC version of the million-selling console game was released last week.
