Sims Medieval not launching

I've literally repaired it 3 times, uninstalled 2 times, cleared my app data and program data, restarted my computer countless times, and it's still not working. It's working on my sister's computer ...

    @gandmsims, try to do the following. Uninstall the game before trying to do this.

    1) Install the game from Origin.

    2) Install Base game alone. Repair the game before launching it.

    3) Launch game, disable Origin In Game while Error code window is open and then close the Error code window. Also clear cache files from Documents > Electronic Arts > Sims Medieval.

    4) Repair the game again.

    5) Download and install Pirates and Nobles.

    6) Repair the game again and clear the cache files one more time.

    Please let me know if this works.

@Tremayne4260 My game will run and then after the beginning cut scene before the load screen, it will go all black and then shut down the game. Im not getting an error message the game just shuts off after the cutscene.

@SnowLilly3399 Please try repairing the game, as well as running it in a clean Sims Medieval folder.

Go do Documents\Electronic Arts\ and move The Sims Medieval folder to your desktop. Then try to launch the game and see what happens.

If you do not have any saves or any Sims Medieval data that is important to you, you can also just delete the folder instead of moving it to your desktop.
