javelin anticheat is causing my PC to hard reboot
I've managed to play a little bit of the closed beta so far and while playing my PC would randomly reboot only while playing bf6. There's no BSOD, no warning. It just suddenly reboots and will only do so when playing bf6.
I've done numerous stress testing and diagnosing of my system. I know it's not my components nor is it any of them overheating or failing since they all work for numerous other games and software much more demanding than this game.
This is a similar issue when another anti cheat; the Vanguard anti cheat by riot is active as well. After a unknown period of time, the program will cause my PC to hard reboot.
After checking event viewer and diagnosing the windows dumpfile generated after the hard reboot, I have come to the conclusion that it must be the anti cheat. The windows debugging tool indicates as such:
SYMBOL_NAME: eaanticheat+2d6f589 MODULE_NAME: eaanticheat IMAGE_NAME: eaanticheat.sys STACK_COMMAND: .process /r /p 0xffffd18759ba6080; .thread 0xffffd1874e1e5080 ; kb BUCKET_ID_FUNC_OFFSET: 2d6f589 FAILURE_BUCKET_ID: AV_R_eaanticheat!unknown_function OSPLATFORM_TYPE: x64 OSNAME: Windows 10 FAILURE_ID_HASH: {100f1e0a-abcf-3860-2e0c-3546be52e55a} Followup: MachineOwner
I highly recommend looking into this issue since there will soon be many, many more players who will potentially run into this problem and have no idea how to check or try to make sense of this problem.
Nothing in here indicates or alludes any cheating at all. If the first thought you had at seeing super scary debug code is that I must be cheating; I'm sorry to say but you're genuinely a sped. It might look really scary but all it's doing is indicating where in the pipe line is causing the kernel level system crash.
Anyways let me move onto a fix that solved my problem so others can try and actually play the game. Might wanna look away since it clearly frightens you.
I believe I've managed to resolve the issue since I've managed to play three games in a row without a reboot or forced restart. I've updated my drivers to the latest version while also booting CMD as administrator and running:
While not required it's always safe to run "sfc /scannow"
I then ran these two commands "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth" followed by "DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth"
Once both commands have ran through to the end (it might take some time as it depends on your internet and system) I then was able to boot the game and run without any problems so far. I still have my memory integrity disabled as per the first attempted fix but I'm unsure if that's required so feel free to experiment.
From my understanding the dism command will just go through one by one and replace windows files which should fix any errors caused by missing or corrupted windows files.
