Battlefield not launching properly. (Brief black window, then crash)

Hey there folks,

Since last night I've been tryna make this game work but it just keeps on crashing at startup. Whenever I try launching it, it goes through the javelin loading process and then briefly gives me a black window titled "Battlefield 6" (the title then goes blank after a second) and then instantly closes itself. I have no idea what's going on. I've gone through countless steps and methods such as the exploit protection trick, moved it to my system SSD, verified the game files, reinstalled the anti-cheat etc. And yes, ofcourse I have secure boot enabled. Please help me as I'm eager to play this game. I love battle royale.

My specs:
RX 6600
i3-12100f
Gigabyte H610M H

Thanks for reading through!

Update: I found this error in Event Viewer:

EAAntiCheatService
The game bf6.exe exited unexpectedly, exit code: 0xFE4FCAB1

Wow that's one hell of a solution. Last I installed a drive was like a year ago so I doubt that's the issue. I'm currently reinstalling the game in case if verifying wasn't enough. Will keep this thread updated!

Well I finally got the game to launch, I had previously installed an NVME drive and put a fresh install of win11 and bf6 and still wouldn't launch. My bro said he did the same but had to physically unplug the other drives before it would work and wa-la it works now after unplugging my other other drives, beats me? Hope you get a resolution soon.

Yeah, it's sad honestly. I think the problem could be related to the anti-cheat or the bios tho. Not sure. What are your specs?

I have had this same issue since launch and cannot find a solution, I've also tried all the known fixes. At this point i'm probably going to bring my vid card and ram to brothers house and see if he can play using them, he is able to play on his rig so its worth a try? After that Im bailing on this POS. EA is NO HELP.
