Error 0xc0000005

Anyone else getting Application Error 0xc0000005??

  • @ChangoTegin ok so we know it should not be from windows now. I did more reading on this error on toms hardware  and it can be from anything from bad windows, bad driver and even a virus on the PC :/ Just to be safe run your Virus scan to rule it out but in truth I am thinking after a virus scan you could just have a bad install of origin and this is a easy fix without losing your games. Edit... Other info I found on this error is from a windows update but they do not say what one :/ And you can set PC back to a time when you did not get this error if you have this on your PC. Very strange error as it can be due to so many different things with some luck the fix is below if not we will keep working on it.

    So after you run a virus scan just to rule out a bug on your PC do this to see if it will fix it please....


    Origin Download the latest here: http://origin.com/download

    Uninstall Origin NOT your games just origin...

    1. Uninstall Origin completely from Windows Control Panel.
    2. Reboot your PC. This is important to clear out any lingering registry files or directories.
    3. Download the latest Origin here: http://origin.com/download
    4. Install Origin You should not be prompted to update.

    Reboot PC Then test BF4

    EDIT.... If this fails to fix it then try this for settings and if need be BF4 cfg as it could be mucked up from all this ....


    Disable Origin in game:
    In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game

    Origin Cloud Storage turn it off
    Origin, settings, General

    Make Sure BF4 is set to 64bit if your windows is 64bit
    1- open origin and go to My Games
    2-Right click BF4 and go to Game Properties
    3-Under when launching this game set it to x64 and check off disable origin in game.
    4- Hit apply REBOOT your PC and then test your BF4


    If all this fails to fix it then try this...

    C:\Users\your PC Name\Documents\Battlefield 4

    BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues. Even if its not a new install it is still worth trying as the game cfg could be mucked up.

    1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop for now.
    2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
    3-Repair BF4
    4- When done go test your game. If it fails reboot your PC and run repair game again and test BF4.

  • @ChangoTegin what windows OS do you have? 

    Give this a try to rule out windows helping to make this issue sadly this error can come from a few places on a pc so this could take some time to hunt down the correct fix for your PC :/ 

    Test your windows for errors as a clean windows install does not always make a stable windows.

    NOTE: Running SFC does not guarantee the crash will not happen, but it will ensure it is not because a windows Dll or file is corrupted in windows.

    This works in all windows O/S vista Win7, Win8 and Win8.1  and win 10 I am told windows system file checker :] Copy and past this to note pad and put it on your desktop. As open programs can give you errors when you run this.

    sfc /scannow, ever hear of it if not your going to love this, it will inspect all the important windows files as well as the windows DLL files. If windows system file checker finds any issues with the windows files and windows DLL files it will replace them / try to fix them. This little tool as well as the event viewer on a PC saved me and fully helped me fix my BF4 issues as well as saved me many a format since I found it. This is the best toy they ever put in windows :womanvery-happy:

    -For win7 go to start/ bottom left screen / windows globe .. Right click in search type cmd and right click cmd pick run as administrator.
    -For win 8.1 right mouse click start bottom left of screen / windows box and pick command prompt administrator.

    1-Open administrator command prompt and close web pages and programs like Origin, Steam etc.

    2-Type or copy and paste in sfc /scannow and hit enter, This takes 5 min to 15 min SSD vs HD

    3-This can go one of a few ways ..... no errors ... it fixed some errors ..... could not fix all errors...... does not finish checking and errors out ....... and the last one could not fix errors at all :/

    4-After its done REBOOT PC and Run sfc /scannow again even if you had no errors the first time or had errors, could not fix run sfc /scannow again and when its done a second time reboot. You need to do this a and get no errors 2 x in a row ...

    5-So if you ran it 2x and no errors your safe you can stop. If you had errors first time but not the second then run sfc /scannow again and when its done reboot. You need to get could not find any errors 2 x to be safe. If it still finds errors try and run it a few more times until it finds no errors 2x AND ALWAYS REBOOT BETWEEN RUNNING sfc /scannow

    6-If you get a message indicating that it can not be repaired and you ran sfc /scannow more then 3x in a row on win vista or 7 mm you need a format or try repair win 7 :/ But after format or repair and all updates are done run sfc /scannow to make sure your windows is stable same deal 2x error free reboot between them.

    NOTE-If your O/S is Win8 or Win 8,1 then you can run the next few command lines in administrator command prompt. Sadly this does not work for win vista or 7 :/ Note: After you run each command line Reboot PC.

    This next part of windows scans is only for windows 8 & windows 8.1

    Reboot PC after you run each command line and close programs and web pages.

    And same deal as above run command prompt administrator.

    1-This command line will scan the health of your PC:
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth

    2-This command line will restore the health of your PC and you don't lose anything on your PC :
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    Note: If you get errors with the two command lines above and it cant be fixed with second command line and if you are on windows 8.1. Then use third command line but be warned it could take up to two hrs to fix your PC but it will save you a format. I had a friend test this on a PC with errors when it could not be fixed with second command line. :womanvery-happy:

    This next part of windows scans is only for windows 8.1 : Credit goes to CptBigoso for finding this..

    And same deal as above run command prompt administrator.

    1-If restore heath gave you errors then you can always try this command line:

    dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup

    2-If you get Error 0x800F081F with the restore health scan then run this command line. After you reboot your PC then run third command line to be sure your windows is fully stable.

    Dism.exe /Online /Cleanup-Image /AnalyzeComponentStore

    Ran it twice with no errors rebooting after each.  Still same error when trying to join any server.

    Fifa 17 and 18 fix (0xc0000005) I think:
    - fifaconfig.exe should be an icon on the desktop
    - fifaconfig.exe should be Administrator
    - fifa1x.exe should be an icon on the desktop
    - fifa1x.exe should be Administrator
    (as Administrator: right click / properties / compatibility / legal checkbox: X)

    After launching fifaconfig.exe, you should have a language change (eg ENG - DE), run and then back (DE - ENG), run.
