Crash caused by the EA Anti-Cheat driver (eaanticheat.sys)

Battlefield 6 has crashed my whole PC (blue screen) four times now over the past few weeks - July 17, July 19, August 3, and August 4. Each time, the crash is caused by the EA Anti-Cheat driver (eaanticheat.sys) and shows the exact same error signature (failure hash d544cf09-4735-e698-77c3-5df5924e5448), so this looks like a real bug rather than something specific to my setup.

I've already tried:

- Updating Windows fully

- Doing a clean GPU driver reinstall (using DDU, not just updating in place)

- Fully uninstalling and reinstalling EA Anti-Cheat

- Turning off overlay software (NVIDIA overlay, GeForce Experience overlay)

- Replacing all my RAM

- Replacing my video card entirely

Even after replacing the hardware, the exact same crash happened again the very next day. At this point I don't think this is a hardware issue on my end - it looks like a bug in the anti-cheat driver itself. My GPU is an RTX 5060 Ti.

  • I think it’s a bug in the anti cheat, I played fine last wednesday and then went to play like Thursday or Friday and can’t even get to the splash screen before the bsod IRQL error every time. 
    just uninstalled it for the time being and enjoying Mistfall. Lol
