EA FC 26 - AntiCheat Packer Crash on MSI Laptop

Hi all,

I am encountering an issue with EA FC 26 where the game crashes during launch due to an EA AntiCheat Packer crash. Despite following all recommended troubleshooting steps (reinstalling EA AntiCheat, clearing cache, verifying game files, and more), the issue persists.

Here are the key details:Game version: EA FC 26

Error: AntiCheat crash at Packer stage

System: MSI laptop with RTX 4080 and Intel 13th Gen i9

Operating System: Windows 11

Error Type: Crash Report Handler with a generated dmp file

I have tried:

Restarting and reinstalling EA AntiCheat

Clearing cache and verifying game files

Running in clean boot mode

Ensuring Memory Integrity is off and Hyper-V is disabled

Closing potential conflicting background software (Nahimic, MSI apps)

The problem seems to be persistent and might be related to MSI-specific hardware/software, as I have seen similar reports from other users. Has anyone experienced this issue and found a solution, or can EA provide further assistance?

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you
