    Dang guys :/ Ok lets try this look in your event viewer  for errors ...To find event viewer ... Control Panel / Administrative Tools click on event viewer then go to event viewer local at the top, this will show you your windows errors.

    google the event id and source with your O/s and look for the fix. Sometimes the error is just from installing or uninstalling a program. This page can help you alot ......

    http://www.eventid.net/display-eventid-1-source-Google%20Update-eventno-11179-phase-1.htm

    Or this could be a issue with windows so also do this....

    Test your windows for errors
    This works in all windows O/S vista Win7, Win8 and Win8.1 windows system file checker :] Copy and past this to note pad and put it on your desktop. As open programs can give you errors when you run this.

    ...... sfc /scannow ..... ever hear of it if not your going to love this .... it will inspect all the important windows files as well as the windows DLL files. If windows system file checker finds any issues with the windows files and windows DLL files it will replace them. This little tool as well as the event viewer saved me and fully helped me fix my BF4 issues as well as saved my .... many a format since I found it. This is the best toy they ever put in windows :]

    For win7 go to start left click in search type cmd and right click cmd pick run as admin

    For win 8.1 right click start bottom left of screen and pick command prompt admin

    1 - Open administrator command prompt and close web pages and programs like origin.

    2 - Type or copy and paste in sfc /scannow and hit enter, This takes 5 min to 15 min SSD vs HD

    3 - This can go one of a few ways ..... no errors ... it fixed some errors ..... could not fix all errors...... does not finish checking and errors out ....... and the last one could not fix errors at all :/

    4 -After its done reboot and do it again even if you had no errors the first time or had errors, could not fix ... run sfc /scannow again and when its done a second time reboot. You need to do this a and get no errors 2 x in a row ...

    5- So if you ran it 2x and no errors your safe you can stop now for now lol, If you had errors first time but not the second then run sfc /scannow again and when its done reboot. You need to get could not find any errors 2 x to be safe. If it still finds errors try and run it a few more times until it finds no errors 2x AND ALWAYS REBOOT BETWEEN RUNNING sfc /scannow

    6 - If you get a message indicating that it can not be repaired and you ran sfc /scannow more then 3x in a row on win vista or 7 mm you need a format or try repair win 7 :/ But after format or repair and all updates are done run sfc /scannow to make sure your windows is stable same deal 2x error free reboot between them.

    If your O/S is Win8 or Win 8,1 then you can run this next command / line in administrator command prompt. Sadly this does not work for win vista or 7 :/ It will restore the health of your PC and you dont lose anything and it will also fix errors in the registry :]

    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth ------- ONLY works for windows 8 and 8.1

    7 - When its done reboot

    Aww man I am sorry windows does not like things like custom themes that alone can make issues in BF4. No disrespect to you but you have to be careful with stuff like  custom themes as they can have bugs in them and the issues they give are fully not worth it.

  • I never had a problem with BF4 until 3 weeks ago, I've had this same theme running since the beta...

    When the last patch and the last DLC came out programs people never had issues with started to give issue and I have no idea why. :womanfrustrated: BF4 is a hog to run no question and all the extra stuff we run when in game can fully have a effect. I cant say for sure ya its your  theme but it is a good chance. And why the windows scan removed the theme/ mucked it up on you I have no idea other then windows does not like it .

    Before you put the theme back in I would repair BF4 or even try this and test BF4 with out the theme just to rule it out. Twenty years ago I had a windows theme on win95 or win 97 I forget now but ohh man filled with spy **bleep** I just dont trust them still to this day lol once was enough for me lol.


    BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues.

    1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
    2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
    3-Repair BF4
    4- When done go test your game.

    Hope this helps, because it had driven me nuts, tried every suggestion on this site and some others.  My problem ended up being the unifying receiver on my logitech keyboard and mouse.  I had it installed in a rear usb port and never had the first issue with either the keyboard or mouse until BF4, so for most things it works fine there but with BF4 had lag and freeze issues...  FIX (at least for me): move the unifying receiver from the rear of the tower,  closer to the keyboard.  I used the USB extension hub that came with the k/m combo and installed in the same rear port. All is fine now...
