Re: Dragon Age: Origins - Game Crashes (Stops Working) occasionally when I open Inventory

Thanks!

I have no MODs downloaded/installed, I have the latest drivers, SP, and graphic updates available. I also have the latest 1.5 Patch. As well as the latest Direct X.

I'm at a loss

I did some research and found this thread on the BSN: http://social.bioware.com/forum/1/topic/58/index/99832/1 

Let us know if any of the solutions given there worked for you.

Cheers,

On Windows 8, to be able to right-click and see "set affinity," you need to be in the Details tab of the task manager. Look for DAOrigins.exe there, right click on it, and proceed to follow the instructions in the post I'm replying to.

@DominateEyeUK   I'm having the crashes in just half an hour, for Awakening.

 does setting the affinity really work? Mine is win 7 and definitely alright requirements as the base game and DA2, and other games don't crash.  

I don't know if anyone really checks these forums anymore, but I'd dearly love to be able to play these games. I am usually strictly a console gamer for this exact reason. I hate having so much of my gaming time eaten up by trying to just make the things work! But I don't have access to my console/TV setup anymore and so I'm trying to get through DA:O on my gaming PC.

I've been jumping through hoops trying to get DLCs unlocked and so on... the latest attempt seemed to fix the DLCs not working, but now the game is crashing about 15 minutes into the play session.

I tried this fix, but it said Access is denied... even though I ran as administrator. Any ideas? ☹️

@Seraphym100;

a.  System specs? (DXdiag report preferred.)

b.  Version? (UE or not? Patch 1.05?)

c.  Mods?

Thanks, @ThandalNLyman... I think you're actually helping me on two different problems, one of them on another forum!

I've attached the DXdiag report.

I am not sure of the version of DA:O that I have right now. I downloaded and installed DA:O through Origin a few days ago. Prior to that, I had installed the game from physical disks. Both were Unlimited Edition (if that's what you mean by UE or not), and I know for sure the disk installation did not have Patch 1.05, but I don't know about the Origin installation. The only reason I'm mentioning the first installation is because I'm not sure if that's somehow interfering with something - as I also can't load a save file now: I get a message saying there is missing content (mods). (That's the other problem I am having that I think you might be helping me with on another forum.)

Which brings us to mods: These are the mods listed in the error message when I try to load my save file:

Qunari Update

Skip the Fade-816

Improved Romance Scenes and Fixes - Alistair (IRS A Standalone DAzip-1166)

Extra Dog Slot v1.41

AlistairRom Appetite 1.1-4587-1-1

These mods are/were installed and not mentioned in the error message:

No Helmet Hack 1_6 Origins-202 (this mod was working in the forced load)

Madd Gift Guide - Madd Gift Guide V1_1 (this mod was not working in the forced load)

DahliaLynn's - Alistair's First Night Love Scene - First_Night_IRS 3.0 (I am not sure if this mod was working because it's a cinematic (I think))

A year with Sten - A year with Sten (this mod requires qunari_update to work, so not sure if it would have worked in the forced load)

And Lock Bash - Lock Bash v7e for Original and Awakening is installed but I disabled it as it never did work for me.

I hope some of this helps, thanks so much!
