Need For Speed The Run unable to run

Whenever I try to load "Need For Speed The Run" it seems like it is loading, I get the screen that say preparing your game, then the loading blue icon above my mouse. Then the game crashes and shoots me back to the EA app library page for the game. I am unsure if I am the only one having this issue but an explanation or a fix would be greatly appreciated.

    You could also try running the game in compatibility mode: 

    • Right click on the game .exe file > Select Properties
    • find the Compatibility tab
    • under Compatibility mode, check the box "Run this program in compatibility mode for"
    • Select an older Windows version. I'd suggest trying Windows 7. 

    I hope this helps.
