    I finally found an entry far down on a Steam forum post about Dead Space crashing. They mentioned disabling their HOTAS worked. I have a Saitek that doesn't show under HID devices, as the HID is after Saitek in the device name. Disabling these let the game run.

Dead Space 3 crashes on launch.

Sometimes nothing happens, I hit play button in Origin the button goes dark and after a few seconds I can click on it again
Other times I get this Application Error:
"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005).
Click OK to close the application."

Reliability history on Windows 10 has some additional information:

    May I know why was my thread merged with this one?

    I don't own Saitek HOTAS and the problem is definitely NOT SOLVED.

    0xc0000005 (Access Violation) is a generic error code that Windows can throw for a plethora of things.

    I've tried disabling HID devices and unplugging everything except my KB/mouse and that doesn't solve it either.

    Please mods, it would be courteous to ask me 1st if Thread-X solves my problem, and then merge / mark my thread as solved.

    Thanks for the tip, unfortunately I am not running any monitoring / oc software in the background (like Msi Afterburner, Riva Tuner etc.).
