Sound Stuttering, Audio Stuttering Fix
PC players have reported that they are experiencing audio stuttering while playing Madden NFL 19 despite the game running at 60 FPS.
The Fix for this issue is very simple but works for those who own a Nvidia GPU. Go the Nvidia Control Panel and select “Display” and then go to “Set Up Digital Audio”.
Here make sure you have checked the audio capability for the audio connector that you are using for the game.
However, if this doesn’t fic the sound stuttering issue then you can fix it through Windows OS. Open “Playback Devices” and select the device that you are using for the Sound output.
Right-click on it and select properties. Go to the “Advanced” tab and here you will need to select the sample rate and bit depth and test it. As there will be quite a few options, you will need to do it through trial and error.
Game Freezing
Madden NFL 19 players have been experiencing that every time they start a match and kick the ball, the game just freezes.
The solution to this problem is very simple. This issue is occurring due to unnecessary USB device being plugged in while playing the game.
Just make sure to remove any unnecessary USB device from the system and also make sure no VR headset is attached to your PC. This should resolve the issue.
Game Not Launching, Crash On Startup
Players have reported that whenever they try to launch the game nothing happens. The issue might be with the anti-virus that could be blocking the game’s exe file from executing.
Just disable your anti-virus or Windows defender if you are using it. Also, if you don’t want to disable your anti-virus then you need to make an exception for the game’s exe file in the anti-virus or Windows Defender.
There is another potential reason for the game to crash on Startup and that is the CPU you are using is an old one and doesn’t support SSE4.2. The game requires a CPU that supports SSE4.2 otherwise it won’t launch the game. Make sure your CPU supports SSE4.2.
Another reason for the game not launching might be a software interfering with the game. To resolve this issue you need to perform a clean boot.

This is another one of the issues that players have been experiencing with the PC version of Madden NFL 19. To fix this issue you need to run the “DXSETUP.exe” from the game’s install folder. It will update your DirectX and should resolve the issue.
However, if the issue persists then you need to install the GPU Driver again. First, you need to delete the optional 3D and GeForce experience components and during installation deselect them as they might be interfering with the game’s code.
A Redistributable Package (DirectX) Was Not Installed Successfully

To fix this issue, you need to go to the game’s installation folder and do to the DirectX folder. Here delete all of the “.CAB” files and then go to origins and repair the game.

However, the game just stucks at a black screen which can’t be bypassed using “ALT + Ctrl + Delete” as the ystem just locks up and a hard reset is required to get the PC back to normal.
This hinders players from playing the game, however, the solution is quite easy. All you have to do is change the graphical settings from the game’s configuration file or just delete it.
Go to the Documents folder and you will find “Madden (NFL) 19” folder if not, then it will be “Electronic Arts\Madden (NFL) 19”. Here you will find the Settings folder which will contain the config file and your saves too.
