When you try to run Halo 2 in Vista or Windows 7 get error "Gaming Live on Windows failed to Initialize"

Hello

I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 from Vista, at which point my Halo 2 Vista stopped working, give me a message "Live Gaming on Windows failed to Initialize."  The game would not start it gave me this error message.

So, after reading a few suggestions and try to uninstall about everything, I started with a fresh new install of Windows 7.  The first and the only thing installed on the PC was Halo 2 Vista, but I got the SAME message.  I tried to update the game, all of the updates of Windows and Windows Live for Windows, but the game does not start.

In addition, I tried http://www.microsoft.com/games/halo2/, however when the aid application and entering my product ID on the box it says there is a problem even if it is the same product ID, I turned on the game with.

I am very angry at this point.  I really want to have to dual boot, especially as Halo 2 Vista lists as being Compatible with Windows 7.

Take a look at these discussions in the forum for Games for Windows.

  • Error code 0 x 80248014 when you try to run MSE Update on Vista 64 bit OS

    Tomb guard Windows Update crashes when you try to run the Service Pack 1 for Vista 64 even if it seems to have installed service pack when I view installed updates.  Update the window continues to show the service pack update according to availability.  So far, I ran it three times and he shows as installed three days in a row, but he does not appear in the properties view and continues to show an available update when I check for updates.

    It's a little confusing because the error code 0 x 80248014 appears when you try to update to MSE, so there seems to be two issues.  The MSE error one and two, the apparent success of the installation of the Service pack 1 for 64 bit Vista Home Premium but not appear in the properties view and always appear when checking for updates, even if each attempt to install appears to be successful.

  • Error when you try to run an application that worked when built with 8.6

    I have a simple program that I wrote in the 8.6 version that I've never had a problem generation and execution of applications built with it to 8.6.  Two weeks ago, I got 2009 by mail because we had very recently purchased 8.6 and I get errors when you try to run an application built with the same code using 2009.  The error relates to the Mean.vi.  He claims that he can't find it.  The error I get is as follows:

    Error loading VI 'NI_AALBase.lvlib:Mean.vi '.  LabVIEW support 3 error code: could not load façade.  I don't have access to the front panel of this vi, so I wonder if there is a problem with the runtime and not my code.  Please answer as soon as possible because it will quickly start to the impact of my calendar.  Thank you.

    Hello!

    The same problem ?

    I talked with my local OR technical support team. The application now works without any problem.

    Rule of thumb: when creating a Setup program do not forget that the option "Run Time Engine xxxx" in the category "Other installers" is selected despite the fact that the runtime is already installed.

    I get this message when you try to run an old MS-DOS - based program in Win-7 Ultimate 64-bit.

    "The version of this file is not compatible with the version of Windows you are using. Check your computer system information to see whether you need a x 86 (32 bit) or x 64 (64-bit) version of the program and then contact the software publisher. »

    I understand that I am under a 64 bit OS, but is it possible to get this program to run? I was wondering if anyone has tips :)

    Hi Bcopeland,

    Thanks for posting your question in the Microsoft Community.

    Based on the information, you are trying to install and use an old ms - dos program based in Windows-7 Ultimate 64-bit.

    The problem is a software that was created for Windows 95, 98, and Windows XP has no way to work correctly with an operating system that didn't even exist when the software was written. However, the error message you get normally means that you have a 32-bit software that you are trying to install on a 64-bit system.

    You can check the compatibility of the program with Windows 7, in the Compatibility Center.

    Compatibility Center

    If the program is not compatible, then you try to install and run the program in compatibility mode.

    a. click right on the program.

    b. click Properties.

    c. click on the tab compatibility.

    d. Select run this program in compatibility mode and select Windows Vista or whatever to use the system, the program was executed successfully.

    Here is an article that gives you more information on this:

    Make older programs in this version of Windows

    If the problem persists, you can get in touch with the software vendor to see for the latest version of the program to use the same system of 64-bit Windows 7.

    Hope the helps of information.

    If you need assistance in the future to resolve any issues related to Windows, post your query and we will be happy to help you.
