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

can anyone help?


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!

    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.
