Fc24,25 crashing on launch after black splash screen
Hey everyone, I’ve been struggling with FC24 and FC25 crashing on launch, and no matter what I do, they just won’t start. I’ve tried every possible fix, and I’m hoping someone here can help because I’m completely out of ideas. Every other game is working fine, running at 60+ FPS like Battlefield 2049, F123, eFootball, CS2, WarThunder, etc.
My system specs:
CPU: Intel i7 4900
GPU: GTX 880M Driver: 425.31, also tried multiple other versions
OS: Windows 10 Fresh Install
RAM: 16GB
Drives:
C Drive SSD Original installation location
D Drive HDD, new, bought a week ago Installed FC24 here, still doesn’t work
The problem:
FC24 and FC25 won’t launch at all no error message, no logs in Event Viewer, just nothing. No crash logs appear anywhere. I originally installed it on my SSD C Drive, but after issues, I tried reinstalling on my new HDD D Drive still the same problem. I’ve played FC24 on weaker GPUs before, so I don’t understand why my GTX 880M won’t run it.
Fixes I’ve tried still not working:
EA App & AntiCheat Fixes:
Reinstalled EA AntiCheat manually
Ran EA App & FC24 as Administrator
Disabled Secure Boot in BIOS
Cleared EA App Cache & Logged Out/In
Graphics & System Fixes:
Forced DirectX 11 Mode dx11 launch option
Fully Reinstalled GPU Drivers DDU Method Currently using 425.31 also tested 391.35 and others
Updated DirectX, Visual C++ Redistributables & .NET Framework
Tried launching in Windowed Mode edited Settings.ini
Disabled all background apps & overlays (Discord, GeForce Experience, MSI Afterburner, etc.
Ran FC24 in a Clean Boot disabled all non-Microsoft services
Storage & Reinstallation Fixes:
Originally installed on SSD C Drive, then reinstalled on my new HDD D Drive still didn’t work
Completely uninstalled & reinstalled FC24 multiple times
Reinstalled Windows 10 from scratch
Other Things I Checked:
My EA account is not banned or flagged
Tried different GPU drivers but nothing worked
Possible Issues:
EA AntiCheat might be silently blocking my game
GPU Driver Incompatibility? But I’ve played FC24 on weaker GPUs before
EA Account Issue? Maybe something on EA’s end is causing the problem
Some unknown bug with my system?
Looking for any other solutions! If anyone has had this issue or knows a fix, I’d really appreciate the help. Thanks in advance!
