Re: Dragon Age Origins texture issues.
In your case that's normal, judging by the dxdiag file. You don't have integrated graphics, so the PC will always use the Nvidia GPU.
Nothing jumps out immediately. Do you have any mods installed? Those could affect how textures are displayed.
The first think you should try is repairing the game. If you have the game in Origin, right click it in your library and click on the repair game option. If you have it on Steam, right click the game, go to properties, then local files, and click 'verify integrity of game files'.
Common crashes can sometimes be fixed by forcing the CPU to run on fewer cores. (Though this may lower game performance.) To do that:
- Start the game
- Press ctrl + shift + esc
- Right click DAOrigins.exe in the list and go to details
- In the details menu, right click DAOrigins.exe and then 'set affinity'
- Uncheck everything except for 1 core
- Continue playing the game and hope it works.
If this stops the crashing, you can make the affinity workaround permanent, but that takes more work. Here's a guide. This applies to the Steam version, but you can do this with other versions too. You just need to find the game's executable file wherever you installed it.
