Re: Battlefront 2 pc shuts off

It was cleaned out a couple months ago when I replaced the SSD. Here's an update though. I played the other day for 2 hours, @70C CPU, 60C GPU with no issues....(fun game). Yesterday, same temps....20mins and pop, off it goes. So now I'm out of tweaks, it's not temp or FPS afterall. Far cry and hitman run just dandy. I'll have to stick to those. Thanks guys for your help.

  • Hello! Did this issue happen while you were on the load screen? My gf has this issue but only on loadscreens. The FPS numbers SKYROCKET and sometimes it goes kaput. If the game ends up loading everything works fine. We are currently testing limiting the FPS with the NVIDIA Inspector

    No, it happened at different times. 5-15 minutes of play.

  • I have the exact same issue. Sometimes it turns off in the menu and other times during gameplay. I’ve been working through different hardware configurations to try to isolate the issue but so far haven’t found anything. 

    At first I tried a different known good PSU and experienced the same problem so, at least in my case, it isn’t a power issue. I plan on tested a different GPU tomorrow to see if the same thing happens as I’ve had nothing but problems with it in the past. My specs are an i7 7700k, Corsair RM650X PSU and a Gigabyte RX 5700XT. 

    Have you seen this happen in any other games? Battlefront 2 is my main game which it happens all the time in but so far in my limited time playing Modern Warfare it hasn’t happened.. I feel like if it was an issue with the game though it would be more widely reported. Hope we can find a solution!

    Your specs are much better then mine. I'm guessing bf2 is such a big resource hog that it really tests your system. A year after i started this thread i bought a new system. Msi i7 1070 laptop.  Bf2 runs just dandy on it. I wonder if i can finally play Crysis ;D...

  • Cheers for replying, glad you can play it without troubles! After a bunch of testing it turns out my GPU was the problem so am in the process of sending it off for RMA so Crysis Remastered will have to wait for me! 😉

    @Guitarman727 I also have this issue! Whenever I try to play BF2, it will entirely restart my PC, usually during gameplay. Sometimes I even get BSODs (Blue screens of death). I only got 3 in total so far, and they each have different errors. Here's the list of the error codes.

    BSOD 1: KERNEL_SECURITY_CHECK_FAILURE
    BSOD 2: IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL
    BSOD 3: MEMORY_MANAGEMENT

    I have no idea as to why I got these. I have never had any such issues with any other game, and BF2 seems to be broken (to me at least). I would appreciate some help as well. My specs are:

    CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 3700x
    PSU: Corsair 850w PSU
    DRAM: 32GB Corsair Vengeance 3.6 MHz RAM
    GPU: Asus GeForce GTX 1650 (Overclocked) 4GB
    Motherboard (if it relates): Asus ROG Strix B450-f Gaming

    Thanks! I'm glad i'm not alone!

    Hey, sorry you're getting crashing, I know first hand what a pain in the * it is. My problem was definitely my graphics card as I've since gone back to a GTX 970 (waiting for the RTX 3070 to come out) and can run the game with no issues at all. 

    You may have a slightly different problem as in my case I didn't get any error messages and didn't see a single BSOD. The closest I could get was 'Unexpected Shutdown' in the event viewer. Mine was definitely caused by AMD Graphics Drivers as since going back to Nvidia I haven't had any problems. 

    I would definitely test your GPU without the overclock to see if that resolves it (assuming you overclocked it yourself) and I would look in Reliability Monitor and Event Viewer to see if that can give you any more information. Beyond that normally when Windows starts to BSOD on me I just do a fresh install as it's less effort than trying to work out the problem! However if you have access to any other hardware, especially another GPU, I would definitely test that first as it could save you a reinstall! Hope you get it sorted
