I sent the message below to Microsoft and was pointed to several "self help"
options... such as this board. Please advise... thanx! :)

I recently purchased Gears of War (Games for Windows PC version) and
installed it succcessfully. When I try to run the game, I get an error
message "wargame-gw4live.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close"
and then the start window closes.

My PC runs the following:

Tyan Tiger S2466N motherboard with dual AMD Athlon MP 2800 processors
2G of Crucial Memory
Windows XP Pro SP2 with all updates current as of 11/11/2007
ATI Radeon X1600 with current Catalyst drivers & WinXP updates

As you can see, my system more than meets the system requirements to run the
game. Obviously, this is a new enough release, the Microsoft Knowledge Base
has no entries on error solutions for Gears of War (Games for Windows PC
version). I would like to know how this can be resolved successfully, as
soon as possible, so I can play my game.

Ditto here. I have the same exact problem and get no solutions wherever I
look. Running Vista with all driver updated and all minimum requirements met.
