The xlive.dll file is included in this download, and installing it will likely replace the DLL file, fixing this problem. The DLL file should install to one or both of these folders: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\ C:\Windows\system32\ If you need to, copy it from one location to the other, or to the folder that the xlive.dll error message describes is missing the DLL file.

Restore xlive.dll from the Recycle Bin. The easiest possible cause of a "missing" xlive.dll file is that you've mistakenly deleted it. If you suspect this, but you've already emptied the Recycle Bin, you may be able to recover the file with a free file recovery program.

This DLL file may or may not be related to video cards—this was just an example. The key here is to pay close attention to the context of the error and troubleshoot accordingly. Roll back a driver to a previously installed version if the errors began after updating a particular hardware device's driver.

The xlive.dll file could be included in one of those updates, or an update might include files that xlive.dll relies on to work correctly. Test your memory and then test your hard drive. We've left the majority of hardware troubleshooting to the last step, but your computer's memory and hard drive are easy to test and are the most likely components that might cause these errors as they fail.

Use a free registry cleaner to repair DLL related issues in the registry. A free registry cleaner program may be able to help by removing invalid registry entries that might be causing the error. We rarely recommend the use of registry cleaners.
