So i am at my whits end here... i have spent over 5 hours, probably more, dealing with EA support sending me from person to person without solving anything. i have a nvidia RTX 2080 and the game crashes every time i try to play it no matter what.
I have tried literally every troubleshooting step they have available through support and can find here in the forums... the last support person ended with "maybe take your PC to best buy and have them fix the game".... EA support telling me to go to best buy to fix apex legends??
I am now unable to resume any of my cases or create a new one without it taking me to a dead page with no options, screenshot attached. i received an email saying i should setup a call back or whatever, if i follow the link in the email it takes me to the same dead page as the attached screenshot. if i reply to the email it gets kicked back as undeliverable.
I cannot believe they treat their customers this way. It seems like once they cannot help you they just start to give you the runaround and send you in endless loop circles. Once i got to the point of being unable to contact anyone and the pages they send me to were dead i tried to put in another case saying that i am stuck in a loop and am unable to progress and have one to meial or no phone number to call, i got an email with a LINK SENDING ME TO THE SAME PAGE I PUT IN THE CASE ABOUT!!! Yes, they literally responded to a case about being sent to a dead end by sending me a link to the dead end i put the case in about!!!!
please help me.
Hey @RobertPaulsonn
I see a lot of LiveKernelEvents that could indicate driver failures.
By looking at the Dxdiag file I noticed that your drivers are currently out-dated.
Let's make sure they are up to date by doing a clean driver install.
Clean Driver install
Download DDU (Display driver uninstaller),
Run it and Have it remove all NVIDIA Software / Drivers.
If you previously Owned an AMD, have it remove those as well.
Download the Driver Package.
Install drivers using Custom.
Uncheck the services you do not use.
Check the Clean Install box.
When that is done, Download Geforce Experience to install the latest drivers.
When you installed your latest GPU drivers try Clean booting.
When you booted go to start, then settings update and security and make sure you have downloaded the latest windows updates.
Let me know if that has changed anything.
