Its a possibility that we might have to I have -no- Idea the time frame it takes to fix somethig such as this.

[rjcripe]

I have a quad core, can someone give me a step by step to ensure it is utilizing multiple cores rather than one? I downloaded CPU Control but am stuck there.

Also; for some reason when I go to task manager it only has one CPU core usage graph up... and when I go to view in order to set it to two, no options are available under CPU history minus a grayed out "One Graph Per CPU"... thanks in advance.

[PoiSIN-XIII]

I sure hope that's not the case x_X

[Jon Jern_]

Sorry man, I'm 100% cynical. Can't really help it.

[PoiSIN-XIII]

i don't know I still wanna play it will soon as they fix it just not as uhh excited about it now? its been a pretty big downer got it at midnight was the only one to per order it on pc got the SE cus i per ordered it forever ago but they put the game out on the shelf and almost sold it to someone else and even when i did get my copy the cd already had scratches on it but it was the only PC copy they had so there was nothing they could do. got home had to wait the 2 hours for the anti pirate thing now waited about 2 days of still not playing it. That eagerness and magical feeling is just kinda gone x_x just wanna be able to play it

You summed up my feelings right there. Although I would've included more profanity and CAPS LOCK.

[PoiSIN-XIII]

For a brief moment I thought you were really saying they had fixed the issue =P. Ah well, I can wait........hopefully.

I imagine that for the time being they're trying to find a way to fix the problem using methods on our ends rather than working on a new patch to fix the issue, saves time and money after all =P.

CPU-Z is a good litle program to know how many core is running on your comp (look at the bottom of CPU)

I just realize that my windows XP dont recognize my Core 2 duo (about time i realize after 3 years of using this computer lol)

Updated BIOS, all drivers etc

After looking for answer on the net it seems the problem is XP, ill probably need to repair and see if it fix it.

By the way, CPU-control cant set 2 CPU on any program so i think my problem is there.

[SummerSolstice]

I even had the save problem with the demo.

[Lord Raven the Red]

Ripped a quad core out of my work machine and put it in my at home pc which was single core. What a diff!
Problem solved for me. I also tried the same machine with a dual core. No problems there. Threw my single core in the trash. Ima be up all night rocking my new quad and beating bad guys in the head =)

[Jon Jern_]

I think it will be quicker to save up $320 mowing lawns every week to buy a new CPU, than to wait for a patch.

My background: I'm a software development engineer in test (aka software tester) at a large software company.

These things can take anywhere from a few minutes to a few days to figure out. First they have to repro the problem. Then they develop a fix and test it. Then they have to deploy it.

That being said, I'd be happy to help beta test the fix.

Has anyone heard about a time frame on the fix? And will less fortunate folks like myself who own a computer less than 1year but with only one core be able to be fixed? I can play fine great in fact but like everyone I CAN"T SAVE!!!!!!! I preordered back in Dec. when the specs were not out. I will pray and make sacrifice to the Gods of DA2 (I wonder what they want as a sacrifice my barely year old laptop that I need to play the game on ? HUM)

[Babypummeler]

*Rage* been patiently folowing this since page one, running out of things to keep me occupied while waiting to be able to properly pay for the game I payed 60 bucks for. I will mail cookies and cake to you guys if you think it would help. I work graveyard shift , dont have much free time between work and school, but please oh please give me a save so I can entertain myself in the few hours I get to attempt to relax each day!

[SummerSolstice]

I just checked to make sure all my drivers that needed to be were up date and they are. So I have no idea. Not only that I found a fix that might work for some ppl. It didnt work for me.

Problem #6: Can’t load or save game when playing Dragon Age 2 PC / Game crashes after saving or loading a save file
Possible Solution #1: (by Oztiks708)
instead of using the launcher I used the Electronic Arts\\Dragon Age™
II\\bin_ship\\Dragonage2.exe file and started it up that way, and it
asked that I log in and activate again! So I did, I started of with the
EA preload. loaded it up just fine and I currently can save without
the annoying forever loop of death! =) gl hope it works for yall. It was found here. - http://www.gamebrood...aunch-and-more/

I found another so called I am gonna test it out in a moment.

I am convinced it is definitly a save/Load game problem.  I disabled the auto save and got quit far into Kirkwall.  After I found my house and equiped new bonus items I pressed save and when I went to leave it froze on the loading screen again.  All was lost.
I have a 3.4GHz Pentium 4 with 2.5GB memory and Nvidia Geforce 6800 Video card.

People just don't read before they post.. do they.

At least skip to the last page and read backwards until you notice that you will NOT be able to save with a single core until they patch the game.

[vaalkyrie]

I figured out a fix that works on my machine.  I turned off User Account Control, and for some reason now I can save and load.  Go to Control Panel or the Windows button on the bottom-left side of your screen and type in "User Account Control".  Select the first option, and turn it off.  Then reboot. 

WARNING: This makes your computer UNSECURE.  Turn it back on after you get done playing the game.

It is indeed. The problem seems to stem from the amount of cores being used to run the game. Single-core users are SOL for the time being, and multi-core users who find themselves in the situation where their computer only uses one core to run DA2 have to use a work around.

Even some mutli core processors computers are not able to save or load. Though for mutli core processors ppl here is a quick fix I found that might work for you. You will have to try it since I am able too. Though single core users try the empty temp folder if you wish. I can't grantee it will work.

8# Dragon Age 2 – Unable to Save or Load Game

If you are unable to save the progress or experiencing infamous save
bug. Empty your Temp folder and restart. Make sure you have uninstalled
Dragon Age 2 Demo just in case.
People with single core processors haven’t been able to save. It’s
stuck in a loop,so if you try to save manually, you’ll have the save
icon stuck on the right side of your screen. And if you try to save
automatically, you won’t make it past the second cinematic.
If you have a multi core processor and for some reason you are
experiencing the same issue. You may want to check the affinity set for
Dragon Age 2 process.

• Open Task Manager.
• Right Click on DA2 exe.
• Set Affinity > Make sure more than one processes are selected.

Same, gota nada. Good thought though, appreciate the effort.

[setaside]

Open Task Manager.

This is what worked for me. Although being on Steam, it was the Steam.exe I had to set the Affinity on, BEFORE launching DA2. Apparently Steam apps inherit the affinity from Steam.exe. so in summary ...

Open Task Manager.
Right Click on Steam exe.
Set Affinity > Make sure more than one processes are selected.
Launch DA2.

Hope that helps some of you running multi core processors. Single core peeps, I'm pulling for a quick patch for you guys (and us so we don't have to do this).
