Battlefield 1 bluescreening because of anticheat
Hey guys!
So my battlefield 1 keeps bluescreening because of the anticheat. Code is DRIVER_VERIFIER_IOMANAGER_VIOLATION and the error report comes from eaanticheat.sys. It occurs randomly while the game's running, while in a match, while tweaking the game settings on the home screen. No matter what, few minnutes in and boom bluescreen. My friend had the same problem, but what fixed his anticheat didn't work in my case. We have tried:
- Reinstalling the game
- Repairing the game
- With the eaanticheat.installer uninstalling and reinstalling + repairing the anticheat
- Switching the anticheat into manual start mode in systemkonfig
- Deleted the cotents of the AC folder in the program files
- Deleting the AC folder's content and the eaanticheat.installer and tool and then letting the game repair itself when starting it
- Updating drivers, all are up to date
- Checked all connections in the PC, everything is seated nicely
- Both my SSDs have ample space on them so that can't be the issue
It shouldn't be a hardware issue, never had any problem with my rig aside from my GPU being broken once, but i tested with both the old (perfectly working) and new (repaired) one. In both cases the error persisted. Other games - ea or not - run just fine. Anyone got tips or perhaps solutions?
I don't know what fixed his, cuz he had to go once and we never got back around to troubleshooting again. Though he said something about some other friend messing with his hardware's settings, like overclocking the GPU or something like that. Other games include for example Apex, R6 Siege and Warframe, all ran fine ea owned or not.
However i have fixed it in the end. I have 2 SSD-s one with windows on it, and one with everything else. I repaired windows 10 through the option in the settings (Updates and security > Restore/repair > Restore to base settings), chose to wipe all data from the SSD with windows on it, essentially redownloading windows. After redownloading every app it worked. In addition i have tried most things in this video beforehand, none has worked, but maybe it'll be effective for somebody.
