Icon7 I think I got a solution to the freeze at the PLEASE WAIT screen

I was in an online game last night and it locked up on me. Restarted and get the dreaded freeze at the PLEASE WAIT screen, the one that comes up right after you see the PRESS START screen. I deleted all of my roster files and still same thing. So then deleted the EA ONLINE pass file and restarted and voila, problem fixed.

If anyone else is having this issue try it and post here if it fixes it for you as well please.

Any chance this will work with the "validating rosters" problem that I've been having? I can't even get a franchise started with the Fairdale Kings roster now. Not sure what to do.

Good question, try it and see....but make sure you have your online code handy if you have to put it back in

I still have the online code, so if I try to delete the file, I should be able to re-enter the same code with no problems, correct?

If so, I will give it a try later.

If this is the fix, it would make sense because I am not connected online and I have had no freezing issues.

Yes, exactly right. I redownloaded the online pass, then put in my code again and it worked fine after that without the freeze at the PLEASE WAIT screen I was getting before that.

Re: I think I got a solution to the freeze at the PLEASE WAIT screen

Didn't fix the validate roster error. I did get to setup a dynasty, but I had to delete the roster files (named ones) and I could only load the default roster with the numbers. I used this and had no problem setting up a dynasty. The two rosters I used were Cajun Commish and Fairdale Kings. Any suggestions as to what other roster files to try?
