Where do you have the game from? Are you playing with the DVD in your Drive? Do you use any mods? Have you tried installing the Games for Windows Live Update & the GTA IV Patch 1.0.7.0? What about trying to delete your game settings?

 

If none worked, try running the LaunchGTAIV.exe in different compatibility modes. If it doesn't work, try to put the GTAIV.exe in all compatibility modes. If that still doesn't work, you might also try to run the file as administrator. The last I can suggest is a re-install.
