    Hi D33Viilz,

    I found a post on the Games for Windows Live site that has addressed your question.  Here are the steps and the link to the original post:

    If you're running Vista, you can not uninstall all .NET Framework before 3.0.

    If you haven't already, you will need to download 3.5 SP 1 here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=AB99342F-5D1A-413D-8319-81DA479AB0D7&displaylang=en

    If you are running Windows 7, it should have the most recent of the .NET Framework.

    Also, I would say that you are using the tool Mod proposed (http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301) to completely remove Microsoft Games for Windows LIVE and LIVE Redistributable.

    When you have finished using the cleanup utility, check that it has been removed through programs and features.

    Restart your PC, and then re-download the newest Client of Games for Windows LIVE here: go.microsoft.com/?linkid=9640147

  • Games for Windows Live (GFWL) on Windows 8

    Hello

    I'm under 64-bit Windows 8 and we found that all games that use GFWL will not work. However, each game does something differently.

    -The games also running through Steam do not work either.

    -For a single match, GFWL does not work when the game starts so I can't save it.
    -For another game, GFWL runs, but then crashes once I try to do anything in this regard, such as sign or view my account - no error message.

    I looked on the forums and have tried everything my machine GFWL wiping and reinstalling, updating my drivers video and nothing seems to work!

    Because if it is a Microsoft product I find it quite incredible that I have so many problems.

    Thank you.

  • Access my account to Games for Windows - LIVE 3.0

    Whenever I try to log in with my account to Games for Windows - LIVE, an error occurs. He said: I can not connect no problem first of all an account. My Xbox.com account, however, is in perfect condition (and it is comprehensive, as well). I really don't know what to do, because when I have access to the link that was suggested by the program (Games for Windows - LIVE), I always get into my page at Xbox.com, but everything goes well with my account here.
    The error code is: 80154017 (and I've not found in my research to the Microsoft Web page).
    I really hope that this error can be resolved as soon as possible, because most of the games I own use Games for Windows - LIVE to connect online.
    My operating system is: Windows Vista Home Premium SP2 (32 bit).
    Thank you.

    Hi Redfah,

    Thanks for posting your question on the Forums of Windows Vista.

    It seems that the country in which you are located is not a country supported for LIVE services.

    The Games for Windows LIVE service is available only for a limited set of countries.

    Unfortunately, if you are not located in one of those, you will not be able to use these services.

    A full list of supported countries can be found on the given link:

  • Games for Windows works only with "games for windows - live» Can not understand.

    So the problem I encounter is that I can't get games purchased with the headliner "Games for Windows" to work with the software "Games for windows".  No drop-down list, no information other than a market place when I opened "Games for Windows - Live.  No ability to view videos downloaded from the software, just to go to my documents to view the downloaded content.  Installed games appear in the GAMES folder and they open and can be played.

    In particular, the game I'm playing is called "Monster Madness - battle of Suburbia".  I'd love to play and get achievements for my account xbox live and others, I love the ability to have that extends from PC to the Xbox, the other game I have is bioshock.

    All advice, instructions or ideas will be appreciated.
