Your Processor and Memory will be under the System tab, your graphics will be under the Display tab.

HEre's a few things off the top of my head that may be affecting you.
1: If it's a prebuilt, it lacks a sufficient video card. GTA IV may be too stupid to give you the proper error for this.
2. Windows XP must have SP3 installed, Vista must have SP1. Forced updates suck, I know, but that's how it is.
3. DirectX may be out of date, or as mentioned in one, not supported at all.
4. You may lack sufficient ram to load the game
5. You may also lack sufficient CPU, it may be trying to start and just so woefully underspec that it takes forever. You mistake this for it freezing and post here.
6. You may also have a corrupted install. Could be a scratched disc, dirty DVD drive, or just a random corruption. That's happened to me once or twice.
7. Is is a Steam or DVD copy, right? Torrented copies tend to do things like this, usually a bad crack. Recommend you legally purchase the game if this is the case. If not, do kindly disregard this entirely

We'll know more when you get your system specs up. MAy be able to rule things in or out based on that.

You can't play this game with your system. I don't mean to be harsh, but forget the fact the game won't load. There is absolutely no way this game will run with your setup.

It will make no difference, it will not run on your PC
To give you a useful analogy, its like putting a PS3 game into a PS2, it will not work. Your case is the same as with the consoles, your hardware will not be able to run the software (the game). If you want to get it running you will need a new computer (nothing really worth upgrading). Otherwise you could just get it on a console if you don't have the money for a new PC.
I'm sorry that we are being a bit harsh but you seem to need some convincing that it won't work on your system.
