RS14 on win8

[davibeast]

is there anyone who is having trouble with win8? i just installed it on my notebook and rs won't start anymore. I have a portable version so I tried it on my desktop and worked without problem...

what can i do?

Works as well as it ever has for me, my boxes were all upgraded from win 7 to win 8 to win 8.1

If i remember correctly when you usually install RS 2014 it will also install Directx and MS Visual C++ redistributable. The game is maybe not starting because those things are not installed on the new Windows 8. Just reinstall the game from steam, it should detect if things are missing on your operating system and it will install them. If that does not work try to install the demo of RS 1 because it will probably also install software needed to launch the game.

thanks for reply, ms vc++ were installed correctly with visual studio.

I had trouble with DirectX, i resolved it installing Rocksmith12. Now seems workin', even if have to run as admin.
