When I try launching Battlefield 2042 it just opens an empty window, even the name disappears after a few seconds. I have tried so many things to fix the issue but nothing seems to work. I've reinsta...
Hi I tried disabling the HD GPU and battlefield now shows an error on start before closing. Furthermore I am unsure about the windows errors in dxdiag, but systems drivers are updated.
Unfortunately none of this worked. When I tried entering sfc/scannow in command propt I was unnable to check for errors (I probabaly did something wrong). Lastly I am unaware on how to check if a cleanboot is a temp.
edit* I was able to figure out the elevated command promt and ran sfc/scannow and wrp did not find any integrity violations
@787361009f8bd716 This Screenshot 2024-04-22 160056.png does show an error with intergrated (at cpu) UHD graphicscard. Ya need to check if there is some kinn of a mux switch (software related or and hardware switch) to disable or switch to the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU.
What cause the error is that BF2042 want to run at the Intel(R) UHD Graphics <-- and this card does not support this. Check if there is an option to make sure BF2042 will run at the NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4050 Laptop GPU,
At some systems ya are able to switch of the Intel UHD by bios. Or some software switch (somekind of a mux switch). Or even by a combo of keys at keyboard to switch/activate the nvidia card.
Also in some occasions ya can set in nvidia control panel what program should run at the nvidia cards.
In windows 11 ya are able to set this sometimes also , Settings /Gaming / Gamemode /Graphics , check if bf2042 is in the list or add it, then select advanced for at the bf2042 tab and select what device bf2042 should use !
Cheers
Keep us up to date please !
i did some investigation for you: to switch gpu the ya need to do this in MSI CENTER GPU Switch: Select MSHybrid Graphics Mode or Discrete Graphics Mode or Intergrated Graphics Mode.
Wow its finally fixed thank you soooooo much, turned out yesterday I accidently dsiabled my nvida gpu instead of the integrated one on devince manager. Doing the opposite and disabling integrated while turing on nvida did the job.
After a little more testing integrated has to be disabled even while the nvida card is selceted for Battlefield.
Game On !!! Probarly see ya sometime at the battlefield 😉
Cheers
