hello guys, i think i really need help on this since its become so frustating.

I bought DaO long time ago just few days after its released. and there was no problem at all. no crash, nothing bothering at all except sometimes the loading could take times. then i stop playing it.
about a week ago, i just bought the awakening. and i installed it, then after it  i also installed patch 1.4.  so far i havent try yet the awakening game since i try to finish my dao coz i want to use this carater in my awakening, (i dont wanna use my first finish character since its crap, and i also dont wanna start new character in awakening). the problem is this game keep giving me crash which never happened before. the most bothering now is i am in the middle of the anvil of the void mission, facing the spirits. and it just keep crush and couldnt allowed finish this mission. its so frustating. i do really need help to resolve this prob.
my pc spec :

amd 720be ( overclock to 3,2)
ram ddr 3 4gb
vga his 4770
windows vista ultimate ed 64bit.

What kind of crash do you get? I played 50+ hours on the 1.0 version and just yesterday decided to take up DA on this comp again but after installing 1.04, awakening and some expansions I can't play more than 5 minutes on my old save before I get a royal crash with a weird echoing sound that needs a hard reset to get out of.

I have the same problem. Game crashes usually just or in the middle of fighting. sometimes when characters such as Wynne or Morrigan Cast spells usually just or in the middle of fighting.

I've been having crashes too. Seeing as others have the problem, I'll just assume it's a patch bug.

I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it without the patches and it works ok again. You can keep your saved games and setup also.

I belive that patch 1.3 onwards causes a problem for a lot of people.

Hello all,

For me, Patch 1.04 did not cause any stability issues or errors or lock ups.

I have had Dragon Age Origins since launch. I installed all patches when they were released, bought and installed the DLC content when released. I bought awakenings the day it came out-retail. I have had 1 period of timewith issues and will tell you how it was fixed.patch 1.02 and 1.03 need to be installed before certain content or many problems occur. 1.03 must be installed before Awakenings.

The retail version automatically installs it or HIGHLY recommends I don't remember which, but it may not on a digital download so if you installed it or any DLCs before the patch they require it seems from my experience and others trouble is likely. Before Lelianas Song or GoA you need 1.04. The health of your games stability and install seems directly related to appropriate patch installs in the right order. Also I had a problem early where my game crashed here and there.

I found out from bioware that the AVG anti Virus 8 I was using is a conflicting program and when it auto scans running software as part of routine security it crashes always. DAO seems very finnicky about ANTI VIRUS softs, a friend used panda, and had problems. One used symantec and even with AV off they still had issues. Bioware and I recommend using MSE Microsoft security essentials. NO CRAP! I am being very serious! I doesn't bother DAO and it is good anti-virus software. It runs in the background always but has LOW usage specs, Very frequent fast installing virus database updates and DAO likes it! It works very well.

ALSO- It is also very helpful to have these files in your windows install, you will see them in programs and features- install/uninstall in controll panel (I use Win Vista 32 bit)

1.) MICROSOFT Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable,
2.) MICROSOFT Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable ATL Update kb973923- x86 8.0.50727.4053
3.)MICROSOFT Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable - x86 9.0.30729.4148

the x86 will be x64 if you use a 64bit OS. I am not sure if Seven uses these same names but I am pretty sure some fashion of the files are there, maybe someone could tell in this thread?

I read from a post somewhere that Visual C++ are very important Mine came when I made sure I checked them in auto update. I am not sure if you need all these or the latest, but Windows wants them all installed and since I have done these installs. NO MW2 problems, No WaW, No Oblivion, No Starcraft II issues. IF you have these files and install them have your DAO installs in order, maybe reinstall after backing up saves and character data in sequence.
]
ALSO MSE anti Virus. It never bothers games and my system has never been so clean. Don't believe me? Try it.

The only issue I have had since then is my GoA DLC install got interuppted during install (Router came unplugged during cleaning, arrrgh) Now it gos to download area in the content menu but stays at 0%, its funny all the files for the add-on seem to be there in the files where they belong?

Thats my experience in the mix, Alot of writing and reading, but its what happened.

Completely seperate issue with the patch. I patched the game with 1.04 then tried to DL a couple of add ons now all of the add ons say I need patch 1.03 which I cannot find(it is supposedly rolled into 1.04) now I have 3 seperate add ons that I have wasted money on. Anyone know of a fix for this situation?

First: the latest patch is 1.04, not 1.4. If the author of this thread could correct the topic to reflect this, it would make searches more effective.



Second: those who have reported crashes should post their hardware specifications. Simply saying you have crash problems and hoping for another patch doesn't provide any useful information. Not everyone is encountering this problem, so it is likely associated with particular hardware configurations. Please post your:



Processor/number of cores

Amount of RAM

Operating system version

Video card and driver version

Audio card and driver version



Also, if you can confirm that you are encountering these crashes without any third party mods active that will make these reports all the more useful.

I agree . But still yet install that patch . Perhaps another cause if we install the Dragon Age II , we need to install the patch back right after the installation of DA 2 completed.
