EVGA card won't work for EA games anymore
So today is the first time I received this error telling me that anti cheat detected bad stuff. That stuff is my evga x1 software for my evga 2070.
Can this be fixed somehow?
I was playing earlier today with no issues. When I tried to play this evening I got this pop up after I was loading into a match of Casual Breakthrough.
So I went to See if there was a New Nvidia Driver And there was. I installed the new driver, rebooted and still got the same pop up while it was compiling shaders.
So I then went to the EA App to the manage button and selected repair and when it was finished repairing I then launched the game and once again received the same pop up while compiling shaders.
So I did a google search and found my issue was my EVGA Fan Control Software "Precision X1"
"EA AntiCheat blocks the EVGA driver-x64.sys (often tied to legacy EVGA FlowControl or Precision tools) because it contains a known security vulnerability that can be exploited. To fix this issue, you must close the conflicting software, uninstall or disable the offending program, or rename the flagged driver file."
After uninstalling this software I was able to launch the game and play without issue.
This started as a ticket I was submitting to EA so they could help find a solution to the problem thus all the initial steps I took to try and solve the issue that failed but I am now submitting it in case someone else has the same issue and this post will hopefully be of use to them.
Side note: The article I found was from 10 months ago and I have had the Precision X1 software installed for since BF6 came out, so I am curious on why it chose this evening to have issue with it.
