I have disabled avast and made exclusions to origin and dragon age. It still wont work. Whats weird is that every once in a while it will start and work fine, but 99% of the time it wont start. Win 10 and Nvidia. Please help.

What in the above quote gives any info that may help anyone figure out what is going on in your machine.....you waited to almost the last line to even tell us what platform you are on...PC and managed to give op system but you have given NOTHING else in the way of info to allow us to help you...

Read the sticky at the top of this forum about WHAT to post to get help, then either post here again or start a new thread....

I seem to be experiencing the same issues.
Have done the following so far
Clean booth and restart,
Repaired the game,
Reinstalled the game
Folder cache removal
Disabled anti-virus (Avast anti-virus)
Ran the DXSETUP.exe
Tried running the game in compatibility mode (win7 &8)
Looked thought this thread for most of this advice (not great tech wise myself). Can’t seem to fix this issue any advice?
Attached my dxdaig

per your DxDiag... @A-virzi
P1: DragonAgeInquisition.exe P2: 1.0.0.0 P3: 5600f278 P4: aswhooka.dll
http://www.freefixer.com---shows aswooka.dll is AVAST
so your issue is with Avast software interfering with the game starting...
So....
1) Exclusions properly set up to exclude, ORIGIN, ORIGIN GAMES(or more specific the DAI folders), and over in users find Dragon Age: Inquisition Saves folder and exclude that.
2) I have seen on several occasions you must put in Exclusions AND temporarily disable AV to make it work....not often but yeah sometimes...
3) Rare occasions anti-virus must be removed to make DA:I work....
4) If you have an issue with this....take it up with AVG/Avast, cause they are the fools who can't figure out a game that has been out 2 and a half years isn't a virus.....

You sir are Awesome.
I didn't put 2 and 2 together and guess that avast was F**king up (even with it turned off)
Made the exclusions and it works like a charm.
Thank you once again,
