    I was having this same issue with the errors on launch and none of the above steps worked for me until I followed the advice to delete EA App files and reinstalled the app/game.

    Here's what I did to resolve the issue:

    1. Uninstall Madden 24 + Madden 25 and the EA App.

    2. Delete any EA/Origin folders in Appdata/local and in ProgramFiles + ProgramData.

    3. Restart the computer.

    4. Reinstall the EA App and Madden 25.

    Game launched on my first try. Hope it works for others as well.

      Hey @ProfessorJobs 

      Few things I wanted to confirm based on your dxdiag. 

      1. Does the System File Checker tool, find any issues when you run it?
      2. Have you tried defaulting to your Dedicated 3050ti over your Intel graphics?
        1. Default your PC to the dedicated Graphics card: Troubleshooting Graphics issues 
        2. If there’s an option available, try capping your frame rate. You can also enable Vertical Sync (V-Sync), to match your frame rate to your display’s refresh rate.
      3. Can you make sure your PC's date/time is correct by synching them with the internet?

      Also if you have not the steps I last shared above may also help us here. 

      Thanks!
