Virtua Tennis 4 - games for Windows LIVE

Virtua Tennis 4 cannot start (steam purchase) because the game cannot connect to Games for Windows live service. It turns out that Batman Arkham Asylum is unable to access the service, too. So the problem seems to be related to the service. Uninstall and try to reinstall the service appears a window of compatibility problem known for her, a help line (via the button) is currently (29/12/2012) is not available.

Without the service won't start even Virtua Tennis.

On my sons computer (RC Win8) the service works correctly (with him), so it might be a problem with the configuration of my computer (PC connected to the DC games started through local account). I know that some games have problems trying to run them from a DC user (perhaps because of the redirected folders), but the local user was the way to go. Not the case this time.

Thanks for the quick response!

Virtua Tennis 4 error message has

"Fatal Error!"
Could not initialize the Games for Windows Live. This application will be closed.

Uninstall the "games for Windows - LIVE redistributable Microsoft ' and 'Microsoft Games for Windows Marketplace' and resettlement of http://www.xbox.com/en-US/Live/PC/DownloadClient did the trick.

SOLVED

BTW,

first a few times I have uninstalled, and used the Setup program provided with the game (compatibility issue window), later I ran the installation from the web site. The installer found the client already installed (but did not check the version?) and took the plunge. Only after uninstallation, the correct client has been downloaded.

  • 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.

    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

    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

  • 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).

    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.

  • 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.

    Thank you
