dragon age inquisition updates, then won't run
Ok, making another post, hopefully this will get some sort of response. Thus far i've been getting stonewalled a lot.
I own dragon age inquisition. digital deluxe edition. as of last year, i was able to install and play it just fine. i leave the game for a bit, come back about a month ago to play it some more..and whenever i start it up, i get a 0xc000007b error. i approach technical support. the say it's an eror with virtual C++ and i should reinstall. I do, and it doens't work. they say to also try .net framework or direct x. I do. STILL DOESN"T WORK. i have tried a clean boot reinstalling origin, reven the entire windows 10 pro OS. nothing works. I still get the 0xc000007b error.
By now, i've tried reinstalling the game from Origin as well, naturally. I get the bright idea to locate a disc version of the game, install THAT, and see if the game starts up. Origin detects it, updates..then i'm right back to 0xc000007b. there has to be SOME sort of diagnostic material i can provide...is anyone out there actually able to help?
The error listed at the end of your DxDiag file is a BEX64 and lists as stackhash error.....from my understanding of this error it happens when two programs try to use the same slot/space of memory at the same time and thus conflict and cause a crash. From all the times I have seen this it has always been incredibly hard to figure out, as it usually very computer specific, meaning it has to do with your EXACT computer and all the programs you have installed or running at the time of launching DAI.
The way I have heard of people fixing this is to start by doing a clean boot and have nothing but Origin, DAI and base window programs running. You can sometimes also create another windows profile that doesn't have any extra programs installed and try it on that one. If you can get it to run, then slowly add programs back until you find the issue. Sometimes you can uninstall Origin, clear cache, uninstall DAI and clean registry and then reinstall both and see if by doing so, Windows will allocate a different memory location and make it work.
Sorry, I don't have better ideas, but BEX is annoying as it usually computer specific and not a general program interference common to every system.
