• 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,

• Impossible to update Games for Windows Live

  Games for windows Live will not uninstall

  I can't upgrade to the new version of GFWL because that will not uninstall, it keeps asking me for a CD.

  I tried to use the redistributable that I got from a game to uninstall, but it does not work either.

  You can still get a working copy of the "Windows Uninstaller Utility" from Softpedia. Simply click on the 'blue box' to the left of the description and avoid downloading the rest of the Junk software listed as "Download." now

  I have this installed on my Windows 7, 64-bit and used more than once. Good luck, I hope this helps.
