Are you using the GFWL client that was installed by Steam?
You have to follow one of the various guides to get it running.
Here's one.
Take a look at Post #0 (OP) and #6.

[sudo]

nah the GFWL client is from xbox.com~~
for #1 i am using windows 7 currently so it won't be a problem in compatibilty~
for #6 actually i dont even have a two-step verification lol

Try this:
Make sure there is NO "xlive.dll" in your "C:\Steam\SteamApps\common\Dark Souls Prepare to Die Edition\DATA" and "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games for Windows - LIVE\Client" directory, if there is delete it or rename it to "xlive.dll.bak".
Copy all files beginning with "xlive" from "C:\Windows\SysWOW64\" to "C:\Windows\system32".
Your directory paths may vary, of course.

[sudo]

there's only XLiveServices.dll in C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games for Windows - LIVE\Client
will it be a problem?

copying all files beginning with "xlive" ... done that and the gfwl overlay still not showing up

[Bleibeidl]

XLiveServices.dll is supposed to be there.
Sorry, I'm running out of ideas, without being hands-on on your PC :(

[sudo]

team viewer maybe ?

[sudo]

finally i have fixed it by changing compatability mode to XP sp3
