F1 2011 - GFWL login not working, Hotfix didn't help

Mr. S · Apr 25 2012, 3:56 PM #1

So, I gave F1 2011 a go on my (rather old) computer and, much to my surprise, it's running extremely well on high details. Sad thing is, I can't log in to GFWL. I can, however, log into Xbox Live on my 360 and GFWL using my notebook.

I can access the internet from my computer and even downloaded the game from Steam directly. Haven't had a problem getting a hotfix for GFWL from the MS website either, to no avail.

So, I'm using XP SP3 and a wired connection to my router. Any ideas? Doesn't bother me much since I'm getting a new PC soon anyway but I didn't get my achievements for the first race I ran!

Solved, a guy on RD.com linked the solution to me: http://community.codemasters.com/for...ml#post7096430.

Is there any difference in handling between the two versions?
I know that really has nothing to do with your original post, but I was curious. I've been considering picking it up for PC. I currently only have it for ps3.

There's not supposed to be, but there might be very, very, very subtle differances.

No, not at all - it's actually exactly the same. I only bought it a second time so that I can play it on my new PC. I just had to adjust the FFB settings since 100% on PS3 and 100% on Windows apparently isn't the same.

Ok, thanks for the info.
