Cannot get Dragon Age Inquisition to launch / Runs as background process.

@lysskathleen "I've tried almost every fix" doesn't give us much information, unfortunately.

Could you please include a dxdiag (instructions here, in spoilered section) and what you've tried so far. Thanks 🙂

Hi! sorry, yeah i suppose it doesn't. I think i attached the dxdiag file correctly. So far i've tried running as admin, making the game and origin an exception in windows defender, a clean boot, i disabled origins ingame overlay, ran in the game in compatibility mode, uninstalled and reinstalled at least 5 times, same with Origin. I made sure all my drivers were up to date. None of these have worked for me, it's so strange i've never had this problem with a game before. Most of the time it's launching but running as a background process.

@lysskathleen 

That hastebin file is blank when I try to look at it.....you may want to double check and fix as needed.

Huh really? i'm not sure what i'm doing wrong with it. Is a txt file ok?

Have you all noticed how much trouble we continually have with our games ? have you noticed they all seem to want our dxdiag files

We are giving them spec which may or may-not be passed on to others , for example graphics card manufacturers. Then i have noticed all the games seem to want more and more from our computers,. New computer, or more ram, or graphics card upgrade

This isnt righ

One moment our game works fine on then next time there is a problem. We didn't change anything, yet we spend hours trying to fix the issues.

Why should we need these platforms to get in our way of gaming?

Why can we choose to go online or not

Update or not

Its the fault of the big game manufacturers. they need to stop all this and just let us go online for updates or multiplay, otherwise they should all butt out of our gaming.

Someone on Facebook or other should start a revolt until these game manufacturers and platform providers, start playing the game with us

What do you think??

love to see your comments

LOL, Steam, Origin and I think Ubisoft as well as Epic all collect background info on your system, ie graphic cards, CPU, memory....go google steam metrics for hardware, it is out there, so Devs don't need DxDiag files to see what people are running.

Now why do we ask for them here.....info, such as posted above, errors, graphic card CPUs so we can see if you are trying to run the game on a decent machine or a potatoes.  You would not believe how many times I have seen people trying to play DAI on an intel graphics chip, or a really really bad integrated graphics chip....  If we(those here helping get games running) are going to have a hope in heck of helping, we need info.

As far as games not working on all systems....tell me exactly what kind of hardware you have, brand of chip, memory(brand and amount), graphics card(integrated and dedicated card), sound card/chip, peripherals, AND EVERY program running on your computer(include what upgrade version..)  and now go find an EXACT duplicate down to the exact same programs....let me tell you, I doubt you will find one in the world.

I actually have two computers in my house, one for me and one for my son, with exact same hardware, but he can play MP on Watchdogs and I can't, his computer crashes more often than mine(I think it is a bad Video card but waiting on new generation to upgrade), and we also get differing FPS on similar games.....why, something is different in the software and maybe a issue hardware manufacturing.

So you will NEVER have 100% play-ability on any game on EVERY system, simply because of the vast differences in the systems.  If .1 percent of people have an issue on a game, then if you sell 5 million copies, that is 5000 people.....it is what it is, and unless you are going to standardize computers you will always have these kinds of glitchs just due to hardware differences, and then you have oddities of game engines and human mistakes of coding......
