I recently bought a new computer and tried to install this game on it. It downloaded, then it asked to do updates, which I did. Once they were done, it wanted me to reboot the game, then the issue starts. The game never starts. It gives me an error saying that the game can not find the data files necessary to run and that reinstallation maybe necessary (1004). I have reinstalled it 3 times now to no avail. Is anyone else having this issue? I am running Windows 8 so not sure if that is an issue.

Windows 8 has been an issue with SimCity for a bit now. I don't know how to solve this problem, so you probably want to try and ask a developer or something on the official SimCity forums on the SimCity website.

Just an uninteresting person that plays video games for your falsified amusement.
