In this paper, we propose a sufficient condition for the existence of solutions to general variational inequality problems (GVI(K, F, $g$)). The condition is also necessary when F is a $g-P^M_*$ function. We also investigate the boundedness of the solution set of (GVI(K, F, $g$)). Furthermore, we show that when F is norm-coercive, the general complementarity problems (GCP(K, F, $g$)) has a nonempty compact solution set. Finally, we establish some existence theorems for (GNCP(K, F, $g$)).
