2042 blackscreen and crash on launch (PC)
Hi there, I've been having this issue for the past 8 days, It happened right after I did my annual windows reinstall on my computer and have been troubleshooting ever since. What has been happen...

FIgured I would just update anyone who sees this thread,
I managed to 'Fix' or atleast patch the issue by disabling my Sata Controller in my bios (unplugging sata drives works as well) every time I want to play the game. Once I do that it now launches no problem.
The fact that this is an issue is absolutely laughable and a joke. Im not impressed at having to jump through hoops to play the game I spent my money on to enjoy.
Hopefully someone else finds this useful and can use it to now play the game.

Community ManagerHey @CrackConnolsseur,
Thanks for the update! Glad to read that you managed to fix the issue.
It's indeed a bit of a weird fix, as you say yourself. However, I would not be surprised that it's driver related and that you mitigate the issue by disabling the Controller in your BIOS.
Have you checked if there's a new BIOS update available for your Motherboard, by any chance?

- @EA_Leeuw Yeah mate, I have quite literally done everything. When this first happened one of the first things I did was update my bios, I also backdated it 2 - 3 versions and they all had the exact same issue.
- @EA_Leeuw I did, I have an asrock b450 ac and it hasn't received major updates since 2021.
- EA_Leeuw@gorgorito1244, gotcha. Maybe a strange BIOS setting in that case, or an OC profile?
- @gorgorito1244 got some system info to share ?
I disabled those 2 options in the bios and I was able to play without the pc restarting suddenly, the current problem is that it still consumes 100% of the cpu (Currently I have it activated)
- EA_Leeuw@gorgorito1244, awesome, thanks for the update.
Yeah, the CPU situation is being discussed here: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Constant-100-CPU-utilization-since-Season-3-update/td-p/12072755.
