game will not open even after multiple remedies

Ive played Dead Space 3 on my pc over 600 hours and 2 different computers. My latest computer had no problems until today. The game will not open. it gets to the " press any button to continue " screen flashes, goes dark and i end up on windows 11. this is the only game in my E.A library that does this. Any ideas. ive uninstalled, put grafics to a min, uninstalled E.A. ive done everything but reconfig

    I'm sorry to hear that didn't work. There's a couple more steps we can try in this case: 

    I hope this helps.

    thank you but no, it didnt work. the game loads to the point where it say " press any key " as soon as i press or click the screen continues looking like a normal load, then freezes, flashes to a oversize windows 11 screen then flases again back to the normal looking and sized windows 11 screen. i appreciate the response though. i havent found a game ( for me ) that i like other than this.

    Hi there, 

    If this is the only game doing this, perhaps there's a corrupt file: 

    • Go to:
      Documents > EA Games > Dead Space 3
    • Backup the folder (just in case), then delete everything inside.
    • Try launching the game again.

    Let us know if that helps.
