My wheel is the Fanataec CSL DD, driver 445.
Can you repost the updated dxdiag?
Do you have the page file disabled or set at automatic?
Do you have any third party AV software installed or is Protected Folder access enabled in Windows Security?
Do you get any error messages or just a hang? Video may help
@SteveJackson Please find my update DxDiag attached.
Ironically, there are many more errors than prior to trying to fix the F1 22 related issues ☹️
The game is not launching with neither page file enabled nor disabled. Also smaller or bigger page file sizes do not change anything. Neither does setting it to automatic size or manually choosing values.
No 3rd party AV installed, no protected folder in place. On the contrary: F1_22.exe + the whole F1 22 game directory where excluded from protection in windows security. Also, completely disabling the firewall does not help.
When launching the game (as administrator or not results in the same), I do not get any error message. What happens?: I start the game (launcher = Origin), a selection screen appears (Play F1 22 OR Play F1 22 VR), I select Play F1 22, A black screen appears for up to ~5 seconds, there is no sound, the black screen disappears, I am back on my desktop with Origin open. That's it. (Sorry, but currently, I am not able to record a video).
When selecting "Play F1 22 VR" I get the error message "VR initializatin error. Installation path could not be located (110)." - I don't have any VR setup in place, so that might be the reason, but I am not sure about that.
Edit: Actually attaching the file 🙂
@EA_Atic Is there any update from your side? What is the timeline regarding an official fix for the launch/boot issues that is currently being worked on?
@EA_Atic Just to make it clear: Also today's hotfix did not help to fix the issue, unfortunately.
@EA_Atic Why do we not get even the slightest of an update from your side?
The game is still not launching for me. When can we expect an update?
Another day without the ever so slightest sign from EA. I am flabbergasted by this utter lacker of interest.
Why is there no update?
@EA_Atic, @EA_Barry, @CM_TGK @EA_Kent @jenny_a_m When can we expect a resolution of this issue? Could anyone of you please provide an update?
It has been a month now since i have bought the game and all i have seen until this point is a black screen. Wonderful!
Please find my update DxDiag attached.
Have you found any solution to this?? Been trying to talk/ & get help from EA but no response. All i get is wait & watch. How stupid is that.
Same issue as yours 👇

Bump.

This looks like an EA Account issue at least. It's literally saying Another User owns the game, it does not have sharing on either Origin or Steam. Only the original account holder can play. If it is the correct account then only EA can fix that.
I haven't looked at the dxdiag because of that.
