Re: PC shuts down when exiting FC 25

For anyone interested, I managed to fix this myself, with a little help from Google. The problem is caused by EA's new anticheat messing with the memory/Asus motherboard and is solved by enabling Core Isolation in security settings. See here https://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/Blue-Screen-of-Death-after-closing-BF2042-FIX-HAS-BEEN-FOUND/td-p/13088702/page/24

You might not have that option available (I didn't) in which case you'll need to enable Virtulisation in your BIOS. Once done, it might not turn on because of a conflict with driver pxhlpa64.sys. This driver seems to be to do with DVD writing (who still does that?!) and can be disabled by renaming it and a little registry edit, see here https://www.tenforums.com/drivers-hardware/184600-pxhlpa64-sys-preventing-core-isolation-3.html#post2472112.

After that, Core Isolation can be turned on and voila, no more BSOD on exiting the game. Happy days.
