1. Install Steam, download SSF4 AE as per normal.
2. When you first launch SSF4, it will install the Direct X framework 3.5 as well as an old version of the GFWL client. Win 8 may ask to download .net Framework 3.5 - hit yes/OK.
3. Once the preliminary installation steps are completed and you run the game for the first time, the game will crash to a black screen with "An unhandled error occurred (-1)". You will need to alt-tab back to desktop and quit the game from task manager.
4. Navigate to programs and features by right-clicking the bottom-left corner of the screen and clicking "Programs and Features".
5. Uninstall "Microsoft Games for Windows MarketPlace", then "Microsoft Games for Windows - LIVE Redistributable".
6. Visit http://www.xbox.com/en-US/LIVE/PC/DownloadClient to download the latest Games for Windows Live client. If the following link doesn't work anymore, simply Google "Games for Windows Live Marketplace Client".
7. Run the installer.
8. SF4 should now launch successfully.
You can also try to install Windows Live Essentials to solve this issue.
you can reply this if you still have the same problem.
Yes, and I wanted to say that your advice worked perfectly and I followed all the instructions in like three minutes. Simple fix and worked fine. Thanks!
Should I have the Games for Marketplace running and installed when I start SF4? I can't really find anything to run as part of that Live Essentials tool install.
Thanks for the help, I can't believe this doesn't work. Thanks Windows 8!
To enable it just run or search msconfig and on the startup tab enable it, it will ask you to restart right after.
Any advice?
