• Games for windows live cannot connect

  Games for windows live cannot connect to the internet, this problem started last week when I tried to play Dawn of war 2 online. At that time I was running Vista Ultimate 64 bit and after exhausting all existing boards on this site and many others, I decided to completely format my PC and start again with Windows 7 64 bit, but I have the same problem exact. only now my profile is no longer stored on my PC because I formatted so I can still play offline.

  After trying to connect, it says "the profile could not be connected to LIVE. "There may be a network problem or the Windows Live ID service may not be available" option on the GFWL client network status says:

  NIC: Local 2 network connection

  Internet IP address: not connected

  Local IP address: 192.168.2.9:0

  Account PC: PC.000000000000

  UPnP: Not signed in

  PC ID: 0X10DF99910D0A00E8

  I have made the following recommended to others in similar situations, has passed all the recommended ports (TCP 53,80,443,3074) and UDP 53,88,3074, installed and running Windows fix it, Microsoft.Net 4.0 update, installed and run Winsockfix, disabled windows firewall (I have not installed any other protection software yet) compatible UPnP on my router, changed my static connection type and still no progress. My router is supported and I am in a country supported direct (UK). This my independent being, but I also experience certificate errors when you use Microsoft sites, which is strange as I said that the Web site of the company that developed the program that I use is dangerous. It's my totally finished in guys any help would REALLY be apreciated. Cheers.

  I can't believe ive finally resolved, hours after validation. the button on my motherboard battery had been dislodged and my date and time have been reset in 2009, whenever I stop my PC. everything is working fine now GFWL working and no more certificate errors.

• Games on Windows boot camp

  I have the mac pro 13 "retina with 2.9 GHz intel core i5, 8 GB ram and intel graphics iris 6100 1536 MB. I can play any game on windows 10 after I installed it via bootcamp or only some games? my friend says I do not meet the min requirements, but it is biased when it comes to Apple products, so I would like to know some people who really know what they are talking about instead please.

  You can run any Windows program, including the games, so that your machine meets the requirements of the application in question. Once install BootCamp and Windows installation, you actually turn your Mac into a Windows PC. Find the requirements for the game you want to run and compare them to the spec of your machine.

• Can't sign in to games for windows marketplace using windows live id error: 80048439

  The problem:

  I bought a game a few days ago, but cannot sign in to games for windows marketplace. I try to connect using the GOOD live ID and the password that I used when buying this game on the website (it works when signing on my live account on internet and on this forum). A few seconds later, he says:

  "Unable to connect. ID Windows Live ID or the password entered is not valid. Enter your information and you reconnect. "error: 80048439 cannot authenticate.

  I tried several fixes that are found on the pages of support for games for windows live.

  I have reset my password

  I deleted all my cookies, cache files and internet (several times)

  When I try to connect to live in the game (using a steam game) I can't connect either.

  I looked in the port forwarding, but there is no explanation on how to do it on my router (actiontec q1000). I don't know if the port is the problem or what. It is not a new modem, and it worked a few months ago.

  I used gfw live years and had no problems until now and I swear that I use the password and login name.

  Any info I can get to solve this problem is appreciated.

• Cannot install Games for Windows Live

  I need to install Games for Windows Live to play several games on this laptop.

  When I run gfwlivesetup, all downloads very well and gets to the point where it installs GFWL and I get the following error every time:

  "An error occurred during the installation of assembly ' Microsoft.VC90.CRT, version ="9.0.21022.8", publicKeyToken ="1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b"processorArchitecture ="x 86", type ="win32 "'. See Help and Support for more information. »

  Looking through several log files, I discovered the error to be (0x8007078f) code that relates to, "connection failed: the machine you log on is protected by an authentication firewall." The specified account is not allowed to authenticate on the machine. »

  So two things come to mind. The account is authenticated and firewall. Well, my account is an administrator account and right click on gfwlivesetup and choose "run as Administrator" does not change a thing. Well, screw the router, I just take the right out of my router modem jack and plug rather the ethernet of my laptop, without going through all the ports that can be blocked. The only firewall that is up and running (the only one installed) is the MS OS firewall, so let's just turn this baby off and still the same error.

  So if we ignore all the error code (0x8007078f) completely, then we can treat the error originally presented... I see basically: processorArchitecture = "x 86", type = "win32".

  Well, I'm running a Windows 7 64 - Bit, and my processor is a Core i7-740... I am out of the resources here. I have seen many people having the same problem or similar (Google reveals a lot). So if someone is willing to stick with me throughout this, I intend to see resolved (at least for me). I only pray that as I did not reinstall Win 7 or make repairs. They do not understand all of these DVDs with the laptop.

  Thanks in advance,

  Thank God I have corrected, I downloaded the latest version of

  Microsoft .NET Framework version 4.0 beta 2

  http://www.9down.com/Microsoft-NET-Framework-v4-0-Beta-2-258608/

  I recently found out through a friend that if you click on the 'exe' of your game... click on 'Properties'... click on "compatibility"... check "run this program in compatibility for"... click on "Windows XP (Service Pack 2)" just in case where also click below "run this program as Administrator"... Make sure you click on apply. Your game should work without destabilizing your video card. ... It works for me!
