I use the steam version of GTA:SA, and the update did not update the .exe, as I recieved the update and my .exe is still last modified as from 2005. I fixed the SA:MP crashes by downgrading to SA:MP 0.3z, without the R2.
Steam uses an executable named gta-sa.exe, whereas other versions usually have GTA_SA.exe or gta_sa.exe, note the - and not _, simply delete gta-sa.exe and replace with a 1.0. If you name the new .exe gta_sa/GTA_SA.exe then Steam updates will not affect your .exe, as its not the .exe Steam downloads/updates.
