You both mentioned you have external hard drives.
I've seen performance issues in the past where save files are located on both. The installation itself is on one and the post game updates/patches are designated to the other. There is a setting to make sure all post updates go to the same drive. If there are files on two different dries, it causes crashes because the system is trying to pull data from two different file locations.
I also manage the UFC 4 forums. We had players letting us know the game wouldn't work on their external hard drive but once they installed it to the internal drive with the external detached it ran smooth.
Would you be able to delete any Madden files you see on the external drive and then detach it, uninstall all Madden files on your internal drive and then perform a fresh install on the internal to see if we can help get you back into the game?
