Every time I boot up DBD it loads the splash screen for Easy Anti Cheat then crashes and restarts my PC. Some fixes I have tried have been turning off steam client and tried going into the bios to turn off XMP but is already disabled and reinstalling Easy Anti Cheat. This has gone on since the 26th June as on the 25th it was working fine?

    I can confirm that it is games that use EAC because every other game that doesn't use EAC that I own works fine and DBD and the other I tested was Armoured Core VI and they both restart my PC after a EAC splash loading screen, yet I have tried uninstalling EAC, reinstalling and even repairing and it doesn't work

    Chances are some files are corrupt, I would start with the deepest drivers first.
    you may need to reinstall your chip driver as that could be corrupt if EAC is unable to use it correctly to inject itself everywhere.

    Go to manufacturers website and download up to date drivers and the BIOS.

    Full System maintenance is a Spain without the S. But when you do it right, you Computer purrs like a kitten.

    I have updated bios and the chip drivers but it is still having issues with restarting
