    Hey @Cerathalis 

    Apologies didn't see it first attached, to confirm you have 132 GB of System RAM? 

    Also, can you confirm if you have Secureboot enabled on the device? If so, can we try restarting your device in Clean Boot (with only Windows Services running) then try to launch your client and Madden 24 to see if it crashes on launch? 

    Thanks!

    Correct the system has 131,072 MB or 128 GB of RAM.

    Secure boot is enabled 

    Clean Boot did not resolve the issue.
