GTA IV will not start with LCPDFR V1.0c

I've been trying for a few days to get my game to start. It would work fine without the mod installed but as soon as I installed it i could no longer start my game. Every time i launch it i get the rockstar social club screen, but when i select either "play offline" or "sign in" it will try to start GTA but i will get a crash message with the following details:

Problem signature:

Problem Event Name: BEX

Application Name: GTAIV.exe

Application Version: 1.0.7.0

Application Timestamp: 4bd9efbe

Fault Module Name: AdvancedHookInit.asi_unloaded

After I select "close program" from the message screen I get a notification bubble saying that DEP has stopped GTA. I have searched for solutions but have come up empty. I have both LaunchGTAIV.exe and GTAIV.exe running as administrator. I've tried to make the GTAIV install folder not read only but it keeps switching back. I have made sure I have; the latest GTA (as you can see above), .net 45, microsoft c++ 2012 and 2005, and Games for windows live is up to date. I have tried various other fixes that have worked for others such as: deleting AdvancedHook.asi, moving the game from under steamapps to directly on my local disk, disabling DEP (although it said GTAIV needed to be run with it on so i couldn't change it), using a different asi loader. Nothing has helped at all. I still cant even get to the opining credits. The weirdest thing by far to me is that I tried to install lcpdfr v0.95 and the game launched and loaded, although i could not get the mod to start. I'll be happy to try anything to get this to work. I used to have this mod about a year ago but im just now installing it on my new computer and am pretty disappointed i cant get it to work. All help is very much appreciated. Also i can not access the lcpdfr configurator it keeps crashing and it always requires me to select the GTA.exe because it can not find it. I recently tried to install this on EFLC and the same happened i've attached the advancedhook file but the lcpdfr.log does not exist for me.
