Try running as Admin. It should help. Also, update DirectX with the DirectX Web Setup for safety.

I had the same issue and tried all of the solutions suggested on these forums (updating DirectX, changing access on config.txt file, running as administrator, etc.). The only thing that seems to work for now is disconnecting from the internet before starting WoG. You can then reconnect and log into GFWL after WOG has loaded. I do not understand why this works.

Right clicking app icon and selecting "Run as Administrator" seems to fix the problem
