I have Windows 8 and not a problem with Metatrader 5. You can check firewall, or your can check DEP (My Computer -Properties (right mouse click) - Advanced - Performance Settings - Data Execution Prevention and add Metatrader file) - if you are having this DEP of course.
Next possibility - did you open MT5 with admin's permission? if not - try ... it may help ...
in my wifi network, i use another notebook can use MT5 connecting to trading server, but in this PC, i can't.
So the network is good, may be the PC has problem, but mt4 in this pc can ,why?
there may have problem with MT5 program, but i reinstalled many times, what is the problem?
Did you try DEP?
