Can't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ play the game

[Guimaxime]

I just bought the game and it won't start i spent 5hours trying to find what's causing the problem and tried everything i found while looking it up but nothing worked

Need more details, what's happening when you try starting the game?

[Clockwork]

Operating system? Hardware?

[Major Fletcher]

Have you checked the system logs for error messages?
Using latest system and graphic drivers?
What happens when you want to start the game?
- Error message?
- Is the game is minimized to Task Bar?
- Really nothing visible happens after the start?
Have you verified game files?
Have you tried to delete and reinstall the game?

[Guimaxime]

The anti cheat initialize then the game launch, after that i have a full white screen with the mouse cursor of elden ring and it imidiatly turns black and the game close

[Clockwork]

So you're on Steam Deck?

[dark-breed]

guys how would it be to ask what GPU is in use and what windows event log he get ?

[Guimaxime]

I have a desktop that use a 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11600K CPU, an RTX 3060 with 12 Gb vram variant with 32GB of RAM and on a windows 10

[Guimaxime]

I have verified the file using steam, reinstall the game completely, reinstalled my gpu drivers and don't have any error messages appearing

[Clockwork]

Ah. If it was Linux, I could have potentially suggested something but for Windows I don't know. I hope someone else will have more clue.

Looking around online you are far from the first to have this issue and if I were you, do looking around on google and youtube because it could be a variety of things.

I found this post - Keep in mind this works for some people and not for others.

White screen "fix". Finally.
I've been grappling with this issue since launch.

Start the game, EAC starts then the game goes to a white screen with only the cursor showing before crashing.

Tried every fix suggested and this finally worked for me.

Replaced the OO2CORE_6_WIN64.DLL file in steam/steamapps/common/ElDENRING/Game

with the file in this thread: https://www.reddit.com/r/CrackSupport/comments/ajq6do/oo2core_6_win64dll/

(or google it there were a few places to get it).

You also have to disable EAC and start it from the game folder NOT through steam. If you try and start the game through Steam with the new .dll it won't work.

You have to play offline but the game works, runs, great and saves otherwise kind of proving that it's wasn't a hardware thing. (At least in my case).

Hope this helps others with the same issue at least temporarily until they patch it.

i already disable/removed everything that has overlay and it partially worked macking me go from nothing launching to having tha withe screen and crash

Well if disabling EAC to play in offline didn't work make sure you undo those changes before trying to play again through steam. Have you tried launching it with steam running as administrator?

and at least it works on my steam deck but i want to play it on my desktop
