GTA 4 crashes on startup

[excalibur4]

I am having a problem with my game which i just bought. Whenever i start my
game i log in thorough social club, i easily get logged in but then when
the game starts my screen goes black and then after 5 secs i get a error
that Grand Theft Auto has stopped working windows is collecting information.
I have tried every thing, i searched every post, *I even contacted Rockstar
games about the problem but they didn't reply!*
I tried the following things:
1. running the game the compatibility mode (windows vista and windows xp)
2. ran the setup in compatibility mode (windows vista and windows xp)
3. installed games for windows client.
4. updated the game.
5. tried all the things after updating the games.
6. re installed the game more than 10 times.
7. re installed vcredist and other Microsoft's software.
8. disabled firewall.

I have a original game and have complete edition of the game which includes
both the GTA 4 and EFLC.
Please help me to run this game.

my system configs are
Windows 7 Ultimate x64
4 GB RAM
2.6 GHz dual core processor
Nvidia Ge-force 210 512 MB

Uninstall the game/remove the files and so on.
Install in this setup;

1. Install GTA IV
2. Install Update 1.0.7.0
3. Run GTA IV Single Player, setup the game (key) and so on.
4. Run singleplayer mission once and save the game.
5. If it is still getting bugged search on google for xliveless and install that too.

I trust you have rebooted your PC after installing the game?

Seems you have gremlins in your game for some reason..

What OS are you running? Please not Windows 8..

[excalibur4]

Windows 7 ultimate x64

[Devin]

Odd, have you had any luck searching online? I have never had this sort of issue with GTA IV at all.

[excalibur4]

Yea, even contacted Rockstar and 2kgames, but its been 3 days and they have not replied!
Post Merge: January 08, 2013, 11:37:36 pmI think i will downgrade my system to 32 bit, will probably work then!
Post Merge: January 08, 2013, 11:39:26 pmOr can it be that my retail DVDs have some fault?

[Devin]

The disk could be at fault, but that's highly unlikely.
It may be 64bit causing issues but I really have no idea now..

[excalibur4]

Please can anyone else help?

[excalibur4]

I installed Win7 32 bit the game is working now thanks for all the help.
