Exactly the same problem here.
I had this problem for the better part of a year. Updating my BIOS resolved it for me.
It’s so strange. I had zero problem running the game since I got it (about a week ago) but today it’s all … hinky.
We are three buds playing and all of us got booted and now we can’t log in at all.
