That worked!!!  I've tried everything on this thread and lowering the resolution, opening origin, and restoring resolution worked.  Please fix this origin.  I dont want to do this every time I want to play bf4.  Aka, your software doesn't open up on certain computer systems at certain resolutions.

I'm having this issue as well.

I open the program (after most recent update), or a game (like Battlefield). Same thing.

Origin shows up in the taskbar like it's running after five or ten seconds, and sits there. There's nothing on the screen, nothing to click. Nothing happens. It sits there taking 94,000k RAM (I can see it in task manager). Tried changing resolutions.

Reinstalled.

Uninstalled, Rebooted, then installed from scratch.

Killed the task, then started again.

Is this the end for Windows XP or something?

@versanick Heya,

Can you try the following:

1. Locate your Origin installation directory (probably C:\Program Files\Origin).
2. Run OriginER.exe.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions. 

You will see three screens as shown below. 

1. Provide as much information as possible and include a link to your forum post here.
2. Click the box to share diagnostic information and click on "Send Report"
3. The error reporter will show the second screenshot from below and will then show the third screenshot when finished. On the third one mark and choose to copy (or write down) the Error Report ID text string (bolded) and post this here.

With this ID we will be able to take a closer look at what exactly has been going on. Thank you very much for taking a look in advance.
