How I fixed the blue screen of death crashes
Hey all -- Like a bunch of you, Easy Anti Cheat/Space Marine 2 was crashing my entire computer every time it tried to initialize. Couldn't even get the game to launch. I tried a bunch of things, and I think I finally found a combination that worked. I don't know WHY this combination of things works, but it does for me (but doesn't if I skip a single one of these steps). Figured I'd share them here.
Step One: Turn off ANY antivirus software you have, including Windows.
Step Two: Navigate to the EasyAntiCheat_EOS folder in Program Files (x866) and delete the EasyAntiCheat_EOS.sys file
Step Three: Press Windows + R, input %appdata%\easyanticheat, then delete the EasyAntiCheat folder it brings up.
Step Four: Launch the game.
You'll need to do this every time you launch the game. This has worked three times in a row for me, so it seems to be the trick for whatever issues I’m running into. Hope this helps some of you.

I tried this and it allowed me to get past bluescreening in the main menu to start a new game!
Unfortunately it's now just crashing during the opening cinematic instead.
Thanks anyway though.

Try this method. Managed to work for me, but in the end it still blue screened after a few hours of play:

Go to the folder <steam installation folder>\Space Marine 2\client_pc\root\bin\pc and create a new bat file, e.g. rungame.bat and open it in notepad. Paste the following lines in the file and save it:

set SteamAppId=2183900
set SteamGameId=2183900
"Warhammer 40000 Space Marine 2 - Retail.exe"

I tried this after seeing it in another post and it's helped me too, I can get a good 20-25 minutes of play before it bluescreens which sadly is a massive improvement

Unfortunately this fix did not help me in any way I’d their any other work arounds?
Update: This fix no longer works for me and the game has been rendered unplayable again.

This STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED OR ADDRESSED.

FIX YOUR POS GAME.

Easy Anti Cheat BSODs the system, this is the ONLY game that does this still. There is 0 excuse for not having addressed/fixed this Easy Anti Cheat driver issue. FIX YOUR POS GAME!
