EA Anti-Cheat crashing game
It looks like EA anti-cheat is causing my game to freeze and crash. It's been happening for a few weeks now. I've tried completely uninstalling the EA app and 2042 and reinstalling but the issue come...
I just got the bluescreen error again when trying to launch the game.
Error: KMODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (1e)
File: eaanticheat.sys
did you manage to solve it? i've the same problem with fc25
My issue ended up being my CPU. I made a support ticket with Intel and they sent me a replacement CPU. No issues since the replacement was installed.
Your PC caused anti-cheat to crash? I have 7800x3d and it just happened to me. Got a full crash plus reset with BSOD in event viewer.
I was having the problem with problem with pretty much any any cheat that is kernel-level, not just EAs. So, Riot's Vanguard, Easy Anti-Cheat, CoD's Riochet, etc. I spent a few weeks looking into it and it seems the memory in my computer was getting corrupted by the cpu and then the anti-cheat was bluescreening because of it.
How did you figure that out? I am having an issue where sometimes my computer doesn't turn off after shutting down. It happens randomly, and sometimes, it shuts down and turns off fine.I even had a ram stick die in my PC middle of September. The ram was replaced and the PC was fine for a couple months and now the issue is back again. Maybe I am having the same issue? How would I test for that? Would windows memory diagnostic tell me anything?
@ryan_lever HCI MemTest is the best memory tester I've used. It helped me track down memory corruption errors on my PC.
You can scan memory faster by launching a bunch of MemTest windows.
For example launch 8 MemTest windows and have each window test 2GB of memory.
8 x 2 = 16GB of RAM being scanned.
Check CPU usage in Windows Task Manager (alt + ctrl + del). Keep launching MemTest windows until 90% of the CPU is being used.
If it takes 12 MemTest windows for 90% CPU usage. Then divide how much RAM you have by 12.
For example, if you have 16GB of RAM then divide that by 12 MemTest windows.
16 ÷ 12 = 1.33333 GB to test for each MemTest window.
1.33333 GB x 12 = 16GB

Let it test to 100%
1GB = 1,024MB
Have you been able to solve it? I installed my first AM5 motherboard with 7800x3D yesterday and now I have the same problem. That's interesting though, I could play the game yesterday evening shortly after first boot. Then I slept, and today I get those annoying Crash Report Handler windows with a link to EA Help page which does not exist.
