What game?
What version of AGS?
Where have you installed the game (which drive, folder, is it a hard drive or else - memory card etc?)
How do you get this error? Are you getting the message window with only this text, or there's something else? Can you make a screenshot of this error message?

Another common mistake is to run a game exe while it is still in a zip archive. That does not work either.

I'd also check if its installed in "Program Files". x64 systems expect only 64-bit versions of the program to be placed there. 32-bit versions should be installed in "Program Files (x86)".

AGS Socket, SQ Kubik (it doesn't work only in my friend's pc with Win8 x64)

Try somewhere else, try on your Desktop or in My Documents. Even better: try in "Program Files (x86)", as it has been suggested.
Try as administrator.
