I just got a mac and downloaded windows 7 through the bootcamp program. I downloaded EM4 but when i go to play the screen goes black for a second and then crashes to desktop. Ive deleted and reinstalled both windows 7 and the game multiple times and nothing changed. Any help for how i can get this to work?

This happened to me before...Now I just run it as an administrator and it's fine.

How you run a program as admin? Rightclick the game (or the shortcut), choose "run as administrator". Hopefully this'll work.

I however believe that the problem lies in the graphics drivers. My friend who had the same setup had huge problems installing a new driver for his videocard, so this is something you should look into.

And if that does work you can always right click and hit properties...Go to compatibility and then click "Run This Program As An Administrator"
