[The Sims Medieval] Sims Medieval Windows 8

Are you recieving any kind of error when you try to start the game or is it that the game wont install at all?

I bought the Sims Medieval a while ago for my computer when it was running on Windows Vista and it worked fine. I recently had my computer upgraded and it has Windows 8, which the game doesn't work on. But, when I go on to the task manager, it is running in the background. I don't know what to do, so can anyone help? Will be appreciated 🙂

Yup Had windows 7 installed windows 8 and now it does not work but it is apparently running it does not start ,The sims 3 works fine though...

I cannot get my sims medieval to work on windows 8 any suggestions will help It installs properly both the patch and the original game but when I go to play it it doesn't start but when I look in my task manager instead of running as an application it is running as a background process any idea why that may be?

I'm having the same issue - I just bought a new laptop with Windows 8 and when I hit the play icon it doesnt run the game. It installed fine and shows the welcome screen initiall but wont play the game. Help!

I got a new laptop with Windows 8 today and installed the Sims Medieval - the welcome screen (after you click the icon) comes us and even updated the latest patch. But when I click the play icon it doesn't start the game. Is it not compatible with the new version of Windows? Or do I need to change a setting or something?

A EA agent informed me the game isn't yet compatible with Windows 8 so I'm still keeping my Windows 7 version.

I'm having the same problem.  The game installed fine.  Nothing appeared to happen when I hit the play button on the start-up screen.  I checked the task manager and the game is running in the background, instead of running as an app.  Anybody know how to get it to run as an app?

Hello

I just brought Sims the Medieval and Medieval: Pirates and Nobles, and they doesn't Work on my new computer, and there weren't any warnings that it wouldn't Work, so i just wanted to know what I have to do to make it Work. Are there anyone who have any ideas of what to do?

The Sims Medieval launcher will run but the game won't launch from the launcher or straight from the .exe.
