I have operating Windows 8 64

The launcher starts, but then it stops..

It only comes up that the game can't start.

The base game works, but when i want an expansion pack, i need too update the base game.

The update goes well, and when i click ''Start'' The loadin screen comes up,  and then the game crashes. And comes with these error messages.

All the games i got shows up in origin.

I got the version 1 In Cover, and version 2 in origin.

(i tried both)

Our security software is Norton antivirus

I only play the base game and one expansion. Because any more will give other problems :P

and there is no crash logs that i can find..
