[Plus Power]

I'm using Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. I added the SA-MP .exe as a non steam game so I can use the overlay like my friends who play on the same server as me. However, when I try to launch it through Steam, it gets about 75% through the loading bar then crashes. It works perfectly fine when I launch it without Steam.
.
Any help would be appreciated. I did a search for this problem, but couldn't find a similar thread.
