Re: [EA app/Steam] Dragon Age II won't launch on PC

Hi Anama,

looks like its crashing on rtsshooks.dll.

when i google this it seems to belong to rivatuner or msi afterburner.

Are you running msi afterburner or rivatuner?

If so, either update it or just uninstall it and see what happens.

  • Hi! It worked but then It would crash 5 seconds into the menu, but I managed to get the solution from a steam forum. Ea overlay for games causes a lot of crashes too, so if anyone is having my problem, closing rivatuner servers and msi afterburner and deactivating ea overlay does the trick, at least for me, thanks to pukingdog for the help too!

    Thanks for letting us know. This should help others out for sure! Sometimes there are options you just don't think about like changing like the afterburner. Still, good info to have!
