How to fix the Madden 24 crashing and freezing issue on PC

Here are a few temporary workarounds that you can try to fix the Madden 24 crashing issues on PC.


1) Restarting Madden 24

While it may not look like much of a fix, many in the community were able to log into the game and play a couple of matches by restarting it a few times. So try restarting the game few times to check if that solves the issue.


2) Verify file integrity

Madden 24 might be crashing for you due to some corrupt files in your installation directory. You will be able to deal with this by scanning and fixing the files using the Steam client. By selecting the game, then going to settings and selecting “Scan and fix files,” you will automatically start a process that will go over all the files in the installation directory and fix the ones that are corrupt.


3) Enable Secure Boost

Madden 24 is crashing for many after displaying the “Secure Boost not enabled on your machine” error. So if you are facing something similar, you will need to go to your Windows BIOS settings and enable Secure Boost. This will more than likely fix some of the performance issues.


4) Update your graphics card

Updating your Nvidia or AMD graphics card might also do the trick. You can either go to their respective websites and manually download the latest drivers or install the desktop app and then update it through that to the latest version. Keeping your GPU updated will solve many issues for multiple titles.


5) Check for Madden 24 updates

EA is quite aware of the plethora of performance issues in the latest Madden installment. They are very likely to come up with a patch or hotfix to deal with these errors in the game. Hence, you might want to keep your title updated to the latest patch.


If all else fails, you will need to reach you to EA Help and submit a support ticket.
