I had the exact same problem with my GeForce 2 MX and the patch fixed it as well.
Still a bit choppy to my liking. I'm have a GeForce 4 Ti in the mail just because of this game.

I can pretty much answer any questions anyone has about the actuall game play, because as I've said, I've been there, done that on the PS2. As far as the hookers goes, you all are ALMOST fully correct. You do have to have a decent car, it dosn't really matter too much, but the car can't be in the worst of conditions. You also have to honk your horn when the hooker walks up to you and starts chit-chatting. You also cannot be in a taxi cab, cop car, ambulance, ect.... You get the point. Also, unless they've changed it, if you have full 100 health, meeting a hooker will bump your health up to 125. Very helpful for some of those missions where you are JUST not able to survive. Good luck everyone, and enjoy one of the best games ever produced.

I'll tell you, I had a heck of a time, because Rockstar dosn't seem to have the patch on their site.
Also, for those inclined, here is a link for the cheats. <a href="http://www.ausgamers.com/?agn=features&id=642030" target="_blank">Cheats Here</a>

Anyone ever come across something in one of the alleys that once you picked it up it said "Rampage. Kill 30 Diablo gang members in 1 minute" or something like that and it gave you a M-16?
I did yesterday and before you know it I had 4 cop stars built up and I could not escape from them.... I took out 3 cops during the whole thing! LOL This game is so wrong on so many levels but it is cool too.

I found a flame thrower on top of the building down the L (go to the left) from Hepburn heights. Found me a nice car and went a squashed loads of people in front of the cop shop. Then, when the cops were getting interested, started using the flame thrower to full effect. I had 5 badges racked up before I got wasted!
Please note, I'm not normally a viscious person, I just wanted to see how many bad marks I could get before dying.
This game is excellent, I'm really enjoying it.
