Sorry to hear you've run into this issue, definitely sounds frustrating especially after trying a full OS reinstall as well as reinstalling both the game and the Anticheat.
Could you upload a DxDiag for us to take a look and see if we can nail down whats causing this problem for you?
They are not motivated to fix the issue. I have written forum posts, talked to help.ea.com chat and filled out the survey on this site and the EA help site, yet have not received a single response through email etc from a dev saying they are looking into it. without a bigger platform, they will just chalk it up to a loss and ignore the issue.
excerpt from my discussion with help.ea.com chat -
"I have checked the details with my team and This is something which might be a bug which we need to report to them. You are playing this game for so long and this issue can certainly put a question on us. I will surely pass this case and issue to the concerned game team for further investigation upon it. We appreciate you letting us know about it I am going to document this right away."
after that talk, they immediately marked my case as "fixed" lol
maybe a bug report would help, but I don't think there is any intent to fix this issue. it does not affect enough people for them to care. best case scenario would be that a future EA AntiCheat, or Windows update solves the issue accidentally hahaha. it is likely expensive to constantly update years of game catalogue to run smoothly with every windows update or hardware release
Ok so crazy issue and crazier solution. I have a fanatec CSL DD 8nm. I upgraded the firmware to the latest and the driver to 464. Just before the issues started a week or so back. So Turning it off doesn't fix the issue but if I plug it out or change it to orange mode and restart the eacheat service (sometimes I have to kill it with pskill as its stick starting) it will run. So something in the CSL DD either driver or firmware when in red mode is causing the anti cheat to trigger. Moral of the story unplug all your usb ports and try it with just a mouse and see if its a usb issue.
