New PC with Windows 11, can't start Bad Company 2

Hello all
Have a new PC with Windows 11
Bad Company 2 runs without the
dinput8.dll file but can’t connect due
the missing EA servers.
But after adding the dinput8.dll file
Bad Company 2 won’t start and
an Application error message comes
0xc000007b
After deleting dinput8.dll the game starts.
Who can help?

Hi, have you maybe tried using AI (an LLM, like ChatGPT) for this issue? I had a similar problem with BF3 that I was able to fix by using ChatGPT… took a few tries and a few attempts at suggestions but in the end it worked and I feel like this issue would be solvable for you this way. if ChatGPT doesn’t work try a different LLM, maybe ask it to search the internet for solutions, on Steam forums for example…

Best wishes :smiley:
