Empire Earth is not supported on Windows 8, . You will need to manually edit the registry.
You need to open "Run" (can do it by pressing the "Start" keyboard key and then "R"), type "regedit" and then click "Ok".

Navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SSSI\Empire Earth\Wait for VSync" and change it to "0" (do this by double clicking the entry).

Then navigate to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SSSI\Empire Earth\Rasterizer Name" and change it to "Direct3D Hardware TnL" (similar to how you did with VSync).

Also i spoke with punisher he got aoc and eec working on his windows 8

Should also add that this is for windows 8 only, as most mexicans will have trouble understanding "windows 8 fix" and they probably don't assume that the threat is about windows 8 even tho it said "emipre eart is not supported for windows 8"

HOWEVER, I think most poor mexicans are still running windows 98 or NT. So in that case, nevermind.
