first Pride demon crash
Has anyone found a solution to the crashes on Dragon age inquisition?. I am so disappointed in this game. took me a day to work out how to actually get the darn thing to load. I had to read throug...

The page with the 3 cards is a loading screen. How long have you waited for that screen to close? It can take a fairly long time depending on your computer. (In my case it ranged from 18 seconds to 2 minutes depending on settings and hard drive speed.)
If the game always crashes at the same spot, a repair can sometimes help. In Origin, rich click Dragon Age Inquisition (while it's not running) and select the option 'repair game'. Try the game again and see if it still happens.
If that doesn't work, it would help if you could post more details about your laptop. The best way is to send a dxdiag file. This page explains how you can make a dxdiag text file. Once you've saved that, you can attach the file to your reply.
Hi Fred, thankyou for the reply. I have left the card screen up for a while...went outside and checked on my pets and put some washing on and came back and it was still in the same spot. the save ring came upin the bottom corner to start with when it went to that page so I thought maybe it had saved but on shutting down and restarting its at the start of the pride demon again which I have now killed 5 times LOL.
I had the disk install but deleted that install and did online install when I couldnt get it to work. have done repair about 10 times LOL.
this is the dx file 🙂

Hey @luv1another
Sorry to hear it's crashing on you, I know from personal experience it's frustrating to deal with. Let's see if these steps fix this for you.
- Check to make sure your drivers are up-to-date. https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/pc/pc-graphics-troubleshooting/
- Uninstall Origin and re-download/install the latest version: https://www.origin.com/usa/en-us/store/download
- Try lowering your resolution settings from the in-game settings menu
Hope that helps you out. Good luck!
@EA_BlueberryThanks for the reply, did all that and it didn't help. It freezes after the pride demon is dead and it goes through a scene of people covering their eyes.then freezes on the card page took a couple photos with my phone as I cant do anything on laptop when it gets to the page even task manager wont come up so I have to just close my laptop.

Thanks for getting back to me @luv1another
Looks like there are a couple other threads on this as well where some other Dragon Age players found workaround solutions for this. Can you let me know if those help out at all?

It looks like you have DirectX 12 installed. I've seen some success from others by going back to DirectX 11 or rolling your video card driver back to the previous state and then re-downloading the newest one.
I'm very sorry this is happening to you! Please keep us updated in the thread and good luck.
