FIFA 15 Won't Start

[V.K]

From time to time I get this after pressing 'play':

"EA Sports FIFA 15 has ceased working. Widnows is trying to find a way to fix it"

And then, this:

"EA Sports FIFA 15 is not working"

Any help, please?

Downloaded from Origin? Mods installed?

 

[V.K]

Origin download. Clean. No mods.
Tried 'repairing' the game in origin as well.

 

[bangus]

Any error messages about v++ distributable? I had an issue getting FIFA 15 to run after downloading because it said it was missing that file. I found my own fix for it if that's part of the problem. Past that, FIFA 13 had error messages after I downloaded it. I had to uninstall and then reinstall, which fixed the problem - corruption issue in the first download I guess.

 

[V.K]

Yes, in fact, sometimes something like 'Runtime Library' error messages pop up.

 

[bangus]

In FIFA 15/_Installer/vc/vc2012Update3/redist is an x64 app file. I clicked on that, it installed and the game ran after that, no issues since. If you decide to try that, backup your entire FIFA 15 folder before running the app, if you haven't already.

 

[V.K]

Doesn't help
Reinstalling...

 

[V.K]

Well, this is ridiculous.
I bought the game and I just can't make it start

 

[bangus]

I had a game last year that would play on one laptop but not the other, something to do with a graphics card conflict. Make sure all drivers etc. are up to date. Past that, contact EA support. Also, you didn't list your specs, does your PC meet min requirements for the game?

 

[V.K]

Oh, the drivers! Damn, this might be it.

In fact, my specs are okay, I've been playing fifa15 for a couple of days. It would start from time to time. And the demo! The demo never failed to start.
Then I decided to upgrade my drivers but as a result I either stayed at the same version or even downgraded.
For the record, FIFA14 still works just fine.

Yes, I am contacting EA support at the moment.

My specs are: Intel Core i5-460M (2.53Ghz, 3MB L3 cache), ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650, 4 GB memory

Every time i want to start the game i get this msg:
See the end of this message for details on invoking

What to do?

 

[V.K]

Okay, don't want to jinx it but the game has started two times in a row already (yay)

All I did was use CCleaner to fix the registry mistakes and delete cache\cookies stuff.

Hope it helps someone too.

 

[TonyEH]

I can't start the game either.

I get to the "choose language" screen, pick English, then it goes to the Fifa Licenced Product screen and crashes.

Windows 7 says Fifa 15 has stopped working.

50 Euro down the toilet. Great. No wonder people are turning to pirates.

Anyone else getting this problem?

System is:

Intel i7-4790K
16Gb RAM
MSI GeForce GTX 770
SoundBlaster Audigy RX
Windows 7

 

[Grimbarian]

For all of you having problems go to event viewer and see what errors are being reported there, tends to be more succint and useful.

 

[TonyEH]

Figured out my issue.

Windows Media Player needed to be updated. The game won't start without it.

Fifa 15 graphic problem

Does anybody knows what's wrong with this? I have an original copy of FIFA 15, and I've played FIFA for a week, but today, when I wanted to play a match, the game has started and then the graphic has began terrible and the game crashed. I have all actual drivers and I tried to re-install FIFA, but it does the same thing again...Please, help me:/

That kind of image corruption looks like either graphics drivers are corrupt, or your graphics card is overheating/overclocked too high or your graphics card RAM is faulty.

Can you completely remove your graphics drivers and try to reinstall them? Have you recently updated your drivers at all?

What are your PC specs including psu?

 

[TonyEH]

That looks like the VRam is going in the graphics card.

Had the same issue a few years ago and eventually the card went pop.

 

[tomceeek]

I tried to reinstall graphic drivers and FIFA is working, but now, it's sooooo slow and lagged. I also download some app what is checking my GPU temperature and while I'm playing, it's around 60-65°C.

Here is some pics about my PC, it's Acer Aspire V3-571G with 6GB RAM, I'm playing FIFA on low details, with no MSAA and no limits on FPS.

I will see, if there will be the same problem again and again, I'll try some PC servis or something. Thanks for help, guys.

 

[tomceeek]

I had last version of graphic driver, but I tried to uninstall it and install again, and it works! I hope that the problem really was with the driver and the graphic card is OK. Thank you for tips, guys!
