Does not launch anymore on i7-3770 CPU

[Greg]

Hi,
Until now I could play the game without issues on my old PC, with 3rd gen i7 3770 CPU.
But since the last update(15), the game does not want to start anymore.
When I launch the game, only the splash screen shows, after which it disappears and nothing happens.
Is there any solution to fix this?
Or the latest update finally made impossible to run the game on such old CPU?

bonjour même CPU même problème de mon coté

Same here, mate.

I decided to try out the new V8 Supercar playlist this morning and I get the splash screen, but then nothing. I have an old i7 3970X on my sim rig PC (with a 2080ti) and up till now I've had no issues running the game. I did notice that task manager is showing power usage spiking when you try to launch the game.

It seems a little like the issue AMD users had last year. Not sure if it's linked to CPU or GPU usage.

same CPU, same issue. this needs fixing ASAP

Previously the game issued a startup warning screen telling how the CPU is not compatible, yet by clicking on Ignoring it the game proceeded to launch & work just fine.
Now it's not like that anymore. And I haven't seen any official statement by T10 on the game dropping the support for older CPUs, son can't tell if it's just another bug introduced by the Update, or it's a Ubi move (like in, say, Riders Republic case).

Yup, that's my exact issue (sorry I must've been phrased it in a confusing manner in my prev. message). Now when I click on ignoring the game just crashes.

Sounds like the AVX1 & AVX2 requirements may have been re-instated. Ask on the official FM23 forum.

Like quick mentioned you can ask in the official forums, we do have troubleshooting forums here[forums.forza.net]. You can also open a ticket for 1-1 support with our dedicated team here[support.forzamotorsport.net].

Had the same problem since last patch with a I7-13700K. Try to launch as admin. For me this works.

Why do you keep saying this trash on every post instead of pushing an update to actually fix the bloody problem for everyone? Worst devs ever, sell your game to a diff company that will actually work on the problems

[Grrr1024]

same problem. Ivy Bridge Xeon E3-1270v2.

Hey guys noticing a few having issues here. Please find a link to Forza Support below. There you can find some advice on PC crashes. We recommend setting up a ticket so one of our experts can get you back on track so you can launch the game. Sorry about that, here's the link: aka.ms/PCCrashForzaSteam

Hi,
The problem is that everyone with older CPU has the same issue with launching the game, since the Update 15.
Of course, on the game's page at system requirements it is mentioned that at least a Gen.8 Intel CPU is required, so we with old CPU's have no right to complain.
Still, before the Update 15 the game was working without any issue on old CPU's (also on my 3rd gen i7), but unfortunately something was changed, and this change excludes all the old CPU's.
So there isn't really a reason to open a ticket for this issue, because it is clearly mentioned that a newer CPU is required, and most probably noone at development will waste a lot of time and effort to debug some issue which does not really worth investigating.
It is just sad that an update suddenly blocked the old CPU's, and users with older PC cannot play the game anymore until upgrade their HW :(.

Sorry to hijack your peaceful conversation, but I feel I just have to.
First of all, system reqs or not, without a major code overhaul any update that breaks the game for hardware that is clearly still capable to run it w/out an issue, yet the game suddenly stops working on it, is pretty much alienating the customers, the playerbase, and common sense in general. And thus everyone who was damaged by this move has all the rights in the world to complain.
Secondly, the game can still be played although becoming more of a Frankenstein monster of sorts. From what I heard some people could still launch it & play it without upgrading the CPU, it was just the game won't go online anymore (because the process would involve copypasting the older game build/version files over the most recent ones, and thus the version mismatch would stop the game from going online, leaving the player with only freeplay mode to play with. Basically the whole thing would look like "newest cars and tracks, and whatnot + some older version files copied over just to be able to launch it like good old times". But still, it is possible to play it on a quote-unquote 'unsupported CPUs' that way, which proves that dropping the older CPUs isn't a necessary & unfixable issue, but rather a dirty move from the dev team to pull.
And finally, about upgrading the hardware. If a person doesn't have a valid reason to upgrade noone on earth can (or should) dictate or force him/her to upgrade, especially if the quote-unquote 'reason' for uprading the hardware is but one game that is notorious for its bad optimization, marketing lies, and broken never delivered empty promises. And also if everything else (99,99% of games on the market) is still working w/out a hitch on that hardware.
I'm not attacking here, I'm just here to remind that players affected by this 'issue' should not feel like it's their fault, or go upgrading their CPUs ASAP, etc. etc. It's clearly developers' fault, and players should not tolerate this kinda attitude not now, not ever.
Turn10, you go & fix your game in a way that every person who had the game running just fine previously, could continue playing the game & enjoying it (I know, shocking!) in the future as well. Fix your game, fix your code, rollback anything you did there which resulted in that issue. Make it work on older CPUs again. Re-write it, re-compile it in a way it could still be played on hardware that previously (pre-Update 15) ran it just fine.
