Halo 2 Vista - Windows 7 - "Games for Windows LIVE" error
I seem to be having some trouble trying to start Halo 2 Vista on my Windows 7 x64 computer. Every time I load it up, It comes up with
[quote]Live Gaming on Windows failed to initialize. This may be because another
LIVE Gaming on Windows application (such as the Halo 2 dedicated server) is
running on the same machine. Otherwise, reinstalling the game may fix this
problem."[/quote]
Does anyone know what I can do to fix this error?
I'v done everything that Microsoft's tech guys and Caboose OMalley have said...

Im not sure but I have the problem too and i dont have any windows live games anymore uninstalled them and it doesnt work.

I'm having the same error. I have not yet been able to get it fixed, but as Gunmonkey points out, it is a problem with GFWL (Games For Windows Live). I've found several threads on other forums about it, but it does not look good for Windows 7 users at the moment. -Basically, its an error with certain versions of windows live, and can only be fixed with some inconvenience work-arounds...

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] tri125 I think you openned the game twice. Or maybe you started game for windows live then you started halo 2 vista, but halo 2 vista started game for windows live itself. I wish I could help you, but I don't have the game.[/quote]Halo 2 isn't the problem. its GFWL, and a certain catroot file.

I only opened the game once... I made sure games for windows live was switched off and reinstalled it the way that everyone said and it still didn't work... Ah Well, Might as well try tomorrow night...
