Max Payne 3 - Blue Screen, Stuck in Loading

Have you ever came across Blue Screen aka BSOD after completion of the Max Payne 3 setup. And similarly whenever you double click on the Max Payne 3 directory, the Blue Screen occur dumping physical Memory and the machine restart. If so, follow the below process.

1. If you have downloaded the setup - Max Payne 3 Blackbox, there is another directory "update" under Max.Payne.3.Update.v1.0.0.22-RELOADED. Run the MP3_Patch_Update_1_0_0_22.exe setup. If you don't find the .exe, the file can be downloaded from thepiratebay.se/torrent/7336084/Max.Payne.3.Update.v1.0.0.22-RELOADED.

2. Copy all the content in Crack folder to the installation folder, which can be C:\Program Files\Black_Box\Max Payne 3.
Both crack and the update file is available inside Max.Payne.3.Update.v1.0.0.22-RELOADED directory.

Now once this is done, you might also get stuck in next level i.e. when you click on PlayMaxPayne3.exe to start the game, the game will stuck at start itself with a loading screen. Even this can be resolved. Just you need to do is copy the Profiles folder in the crack directory to C:\Users\Documents\Rockstar Games\Social Club. Turn off the internet, start the game by running PlayMaxPayne3.exe. After a few seconds the offline mode will be available. Click on the Offline mode this will launch the game. You will see 2 notification on the upper right corner - one for social club and second to say you’re connected.
You can start the internet if want to once the offline mode is available. 


Remember, install eveything whatever is available in Redist directory i.e. Max Payne Launcher, vcredist_x86 and Social Club v1.0.9.5 setup.
