Titanfall 2 won't launch(but seems to be running in task manager)

Young Pup, your DxDiag only offers one potential warning flag.  Half of the six R7 2xx Radeons are below the minimum, one is the named minimum, and two are above that.  Only those two are supposed to try any graphics setting above the lowest, so if you have any GPU other than the 260X, 270, you have to run the game with its very lowest settings.

@FearsomeGr Hi, what did you do to fix this? Perhaps it may help anyone else affected by the issue in future?

Thanks.

Step 1. Open Windows Explorer and navigate to C:\Windows\System32
Step 2: Locate and delete the following files:

“xinput1_1.dll”, “xinput1_2.dll”, “xinput1_3.dll” and all other files started with xinput1_*.dll.

Step 3: Once the files are deleted, download and run the DirectX setup.

Step 4: Now Run the downloaded file and install Directx. Once the installation is completed reboot your computer.

Hey! 

I saw that you helped a few people here, and was wondering if you could do it for me

I believe the CPU should be good enough, but nothing happens when i try to launch the game, except it shows up in the task manager.

The game engine requires a quad core processor, or at least an i3 / i5 with Hyperthreading that is able to emulate a quad core.  You have an ancient CPU design from 2005 that doesn't include any HyperThreading, sorry!
