I try to open f124 through the ea app and it begins to load but then kicks me back to the ea app with an anti-cheat error.

The latest version of EA anticheat is required to play. Please see: https://help.ea.com/help/pc/ea-anticheat/on howto update to the latest version. (136)

i have tried updating the anti-cheat and uninstalling and reinstalling the anti-cheat I have also uninstalled and reinstalled the game I have tried repairing the game it finds no issues all my bios is updated and drivers are updated I don’t use a third party antivirus just the windows defender I have previously played the game on my pc before with no issues

The EA App is your issue. I don't think it's properly doing the things you've tried. Perhaps someone who uses it would be better suited to give an answer.

The link you posted goes to a 404.

Personally, I would always post the dxdiag. Windows versioning can be important and your OEMs website doesn't always have the latest drivers. Here's an uninstaller. https://www.revouninstaller.com/products/revo-uninstaller-free/

Remove the game and the EA app. Run the Windows repair.

Right-click the Start button and select Command Prompt (Admin).Type the command in the command prompt window and press Enter. Wait for the process to finish

Run these

dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth: Repairs Windows
sfc /scannow: Scans for corrupted system files and replaces them with cached copies
chkdsk: Scans your hard drive for file system errors

No dxdiag, you get a MS Engineer response!

Hi Steve

Thankyou for your response. I tried what you recommended but still having no luck I have don a dxdiag and attached it to this message if you can think of anything else to try it would be greatly appreciated.

Realtek Audio driver is not installed.

Crashes are related perhaps to audio sources selected as Windows defaults. Try setting these after installing the driver then setting your in-game audio source in F1 24.

EA App errors including anti-cheat could be related to OneDrive or non standard (non default) install folders.
