    @Pyrmaidhead Thank you for the thorough post.
    When did you first get this?
    It's possible this is due to local file damage, can you try a repair (or a verify integrity on Steam) and see if that helps?

    @Pyrmaidhead 

    It may be worthwhile performing a clean install (via advanced install options) of the following 'Studio Driver'. 

    Studio Drivers tend to be more stable but potentially with slightly less performance.

    Additional steps: 

    Thanks.

    1. the issue is still there after doing all of :
      reinstalling win 11.
      switching back to win 10
      reinstalling the GPU driver from  device manger and Geforce application
      doing the repair button on Geforce application
      reinstalling the game
      repairing the game
      checking for all driver updates
      removing the game from steam and installing it from EA
      repairing the game from EA
      --------------
      after all that the issue is the same
      and the error is the same
      0x887A0006 -DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG
      1. PS. Some youtube channel suggested to do a TdrLevel reg file "DWORD-32" and set it to 0
        but a friend of mine said it too risky and might shorten my GPU life-span.

    Went in to Bios. 

    I didnt have XMP activated. 

    Did a uninstall vid drivers in safemode, and unplugged me ethernet also. (DDU - Display driver uninstaller)

    When back in normal mode Installed the driver from nvidia (latest!)

    Plugged back in ether after restart. And now it works!

    This is happening too on AMD RX 7900 XTX with 23.5.2 drivers.

    It used to crash, for me, on dx12 only (I created a post about this in bug section), but now it also crashes for dx11

  • Just want to signal boost this - receiving this error after installing my 7900xtx as well. Please, let me know if this is an error on your end (ea) or something I would have to rma my graphics card for. I’ve done the whole song and dance with ddu and stuff.

  • Just to note: played 3 rounds of ow2 no problem on full settings. 

    update: also just did bf2042 full settings ultra with RT on no problemo. It’s def apex
