I purchased two games at Value Village a week or two back: Need for Speed: Most Wanted and Need for Speed: Carbon, both for PC. I didn't try them until now. I have installed both games on my computer, and Need for Speed: Most Wanted runs just fine, but Need for Speed: Carbon does not run at all.
A few days ago, I tried installing Need for Speed: Underground on my computer, but that didn't run either. I just assumed it was too old and left it at that. I think it's a little odd that Carbon doesn't work on my computer whereas Most Wanted does, as Most Wanted is an older game (even if by just a year).
Both Underground and Carbon, when a launch attempt is made, say "access denied: please login with administrator privileges and try again". When I try running both as an administrator, nothing happens, not even an error message. Trying to run either in compatibility mode for Windows XP, Vista, 7 or 8 don't work (same error as above), and trying to run it in compatibility mode with the aforementioned OSes as well as running as an administrator don't work. If it helps to know, I have the collector's edition of Need for Speed: Carbon.
I'm running a 64-bit edition of Windows 10 Home Edition, with a 2.30GHz AMD A10-4600M APU with AMD Radeon graphics (7660G and 7670M) and 8GB of RAM.

I renamed mine to Prostreet but you can call yours whatever you want in theory... I'm probably wrong, but it's worth a try. Good luck!
