I recently just updated to Windows 10 and discovered that the launcher says it's incompatible. I still can get into the game, but the performance went down significantly and doesn't even respond. Just yesterday I ran the game with Windows 8 without any issues. I even tried running the game today with the Windows 8 and 7 settings, but no luck. I am hoping there will be a solution for this, as I'm not ready to give up the game.

The sims 3 will not work in any with any windows program, it did at first then it stopped. Tried to uninstall and reinstall but the dvd player wont recognize a disc in it. So I went back to reset point and still not working.

I am having the exact same problems as most others here.
I've done the mentioned steps, my drivers are up to date, I tried running it in XP-mode, I tried resetting to factory settings and so on and so forth. No luck.
I never even get the game started. I just get the launcher with the startup error message asking me to check the log for more info...
I just bought the game as a digital purchase - and frankly I am quite angry as this seems like money straight out the window which I honestly can't afford..
I - like most other - was running Win7 up until a couple of weeks ago where everything went over to Win10. I bought the game and installed it - and tried reinstallingit as adviced, through origin, yet it seems I just wasted a ton of cash just to be screwed over by EA....
I've attached my dxdiag - unless this problem can be solved, I will without a doubt be calling up EA to inquire for having my money refunded. This is beyond badservice, bordering commercial theft even!!
