College Football 27 Won’t Launch on PC

I'm having an issue launching EA Sports College Football 27 on PC through the EA app.

When I launch the game, EA Javelin AntiCheat starts and the EA app says "Launching Game," but the game crashes and returns me to the EA app library. I receive the error code 0xC0000005.

My system is running Windows 11 version 26H2, OS Build 26300.9711. Windows Update says my system is up to date. I also encountered Windows Update error 0x80073D02 when an update failed to install.

I've already tried:

  • Repairing the game through the EA app
  • Updating my graphics drivers
  • Checking antivirus settings
  • Turning off the EA in-game overlay
  • Running the EA app as administrator
  • Uninstalling and reinstalling EA Javelin AntiCheat
  • Restarting my PC

None of these steps fixed the issue.

I found reports of possible compatibility issues between EA Javelin AntiCheat and Windows Insider builds. Could my Windows build be causing this error? Is there a confirmed fix or an update planned to resolve it?

I would appreciate a solution that doesn't require reinstalling the game or resetting my PC.

    An insider or preview build of Windows may cause an issue. There is no plan to resolve if that is your issue, as these builds are not a supported setup. Switching to a regular retail build of Windows is advised as that is fully supported. 

    • OS: Windows 11
    • Processor(AMD): AMD Ryzen 5 2600
    • Processor(Intel): Intel Core i3-10300 (4 cores; 8-threads)
    • Memory: 12 GB
    • Graphics Card(AMD): AMD Radeon RX 5600 XT
    • Graphics Card(Nvidia): Nvidia GeForce RTX 2060
    • Graphics Card(Intel): Intel Arc A580
    • Direct X: DirectX 12 compatible
    • Online Connection Requirements: Broadband
    • Hard Drive Space: 50 GB
    • Additional Notes: SSD recommended; 8 logical CPU cores minimum; Intel Arc GPUs require Resizable BAR (ReBAR) enabled to meet expected performance.

     

    Thank you, EA_Barry.
