    fc64.dll - Game consistently crashes

    Downloaded Farcry from Uplay, the game crashes every single time at the exact same spot (2nd mission - "A Dark Place" - just after Pagan Min starts babbling on about a TV chef - I can't remember the specifics of the conversation)

    From the event log (Win 7 Ultimate 64bit):

    Faulting application name: FarCry4.exe, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f115c
    Faulting module name: FC64.dll, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f111b

    Here's another one from about 10 minutes earlier:

    Faulting application name: FarCry4.exe, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f115c
    Faulting module name: FC64.dll, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f111b

    ..and for good measure, another 10 minutes earlier than that:

    Faulting application name: FarCry4.exe, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f115c
    Faulting module name: FC64.dll, version: 0.1.0.1, time stamp: 0x546f111b

    Fc64.dll 0xc00000005 issue resolved for me

    Problem solved for me. It had to
    Do with how many active CPU cores were available to
    The system. If you have more than 8 or
    Possibly 16 (with hyper threading) cores available it won't launch.

    Here is a copy of the resolution to the problem
    I sent to Ubisoft

    "The problem had to do with the number of Active CPU cores in this system. I am playing the game on a workstation with dual Xeon E5-2687W CPUs. Each Xeon E5-2687W has 8 active cores, and with hyperthreading this means the operating system has 32 possible CPU cores to work with. I suspected that the way the game had been threading was causing some contention with the Windows task and thread scheduler and underlying microcode.

    By shutting down all but 2 Cores in each CPU that leaves 4 physical cpu cores and 4 virtual ones (because of hyperthreading) and then the game worked.

    I really recommend you work on patching the underlying microcode in the DUNIA engine that runs FarCry4 to play better with Windows machines that have HIGH numbers of cores."
