Dragon Age 2 Runtime problem

Hello in recent months I've been having a runtime error with DA2, I'm hoping you could help me.

  • Alright Problem has been solved. At first I uninstalled the game and deleted all of my old saves because they had become corrupted somehow. problems still persisted but there were no runtime errors like before. Apparently my memory sticks were incompatible with my new motherboard!!! So after getting new compatible memory sticks, there have been no problems!!!!!! Thank you for all your advice and help!!!! :3

    Hi @LunarMoonWolf


    When you have the chance can you try downloading the Visual C++ Redistributable files from the Microsoft Support website to see if that helps at all? Let me know how it goes when you've been able to give it a shot. 

    Thanks!

  • Sorry for the late reply, I downloaded the most recent Visual C++ Redistributable files and it didn't work. Still shows the runtime error message.

    Hi @LunarMoonWolf

    Apologies for the late reply! I appreciate you following up. 


    Do you have any mods installed at all for DA2? Also, would you mind sharing a DxDiag so we can take a look? For more information on how to pull one up check out the EA Help website. Once you have the text file please attach it to this thread. 

    Thank you!

  • I have completely uninstalled the game after removing all mods and character saves saves, this problem has still continued and honestly I give up nothing has changed.

    Hi @LunarMoonWolf

    I'm sorry to hear this is still giving you trouble. This can also happen sometimes due to security updates in Windows. When you've got the chance can you try running through the steps on this EA Help Article to see if that helps? Look for the steps under the Reinstall Security Updates section. 

    Let me know if it's still giving you this same error message after that. Thank you!

    So if anyone has problems like i did check your motherboards and memory sticks, as well as the compatibility with each other!!!!
