unfortunately, I didn't have sucess on first attempt. However i was successful in getting drivers updated. Thank you for that.
I've attached an updated DxDiag if that helps.
Curious as to your thoughts? It appears to be behaving the same way as before. It just doesn't launch the game, it never makes it past the EAC logo
Hmm have you check your fire wall and any third party antivirus if they are blocking EAC or BF?
OS file check + repair:
Open command prompt (admin) and type this in:
dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth
Hit enter and do the same for:
sfc /scannow
Then tell me the results of the scans.
Will do. I'll be able to run this later this evening. I do remember running these scans previously with pretty much uneventful results but i will forward along for sure.
Also in terms of AV or Firewall, I don't use any 3rd part AV or Firewall software. Just windows stuff.
In terms of allowing apps through the firewall, i assume i would need to allow the BF Launcher and EAC?
Thanks again for thelp... I will circle back with results of test and screenshots of AV / Firewall allowances
Performed both scans - see screen shot below. Attempted BF42. No change in behavior ☹️ still crashes after EAC loading screen.
So good news. I was finally able to figure out solution to getting into the game every time.
If I start up Origin as Administrator, it works every time.
It does NOT work for me when launching the game itself as Administrator. I need to first open Origin as Admin, then I can launch the game no problem.
The bad news is that I'm still having constant crashing every time i'm at the connecting screen (The Boat scene).
Do you think i should start a new thread and close this one? Now that this is resolved?
Nah, lets keep going.
