Battlefield 2042 Crashes / Blue Screens

I have been having an issue recently where Battlefield 2042 will crash and blue screen my PC whenever I play Battlefield Portal

I can play the other modes just fine and they seem to work flawlessly but when I try to play Battlefield Portal, I will join the match and I will be able to play for a few minutes then it blue screens, this has happened several times on Portal only from what I have gathered so far 

It happens every single time I play Portal, every instance of a Portal match I have played has led to a blue screen

Looking in Event Viewer I find the following from the time the Blue Screen occurred: 

The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck.  The bugcheck was: 0x0000003b (0x00000000c0000005, 0xfffff806815cbf0b, 0xfffff88c78ee6410, 0x0000000000000000). 

Looking online it seems to be a driver issue but I have uninstalled my old drivers, reinstalled my new drivers, done DDU and such, I have also seen others having issues with Battlefield 2042 too, some reports have said they have had crashes / blue screens like me and this is on a wide variety of specs too

I have tested other games and they work flawlessly without any problems, Battlefield 4, Battlefield 1, etc

This issue only happens to me in Battlefield 2042

My specs are:

GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU

CPU: Intel Core i5-11400H

RAM: 16GB DDR4 

OPERATING SYSTEM: Windows 11 24H2 (Build 26100.3194)

    Sorry to hear that, but I'm glad I'm not the only one. Sometimes the game just suddenly terminates and other times it crashes my PC. Locks it up.

  • same shiiiiiiiiiiiiit happening from last 3 days. also over 1000 ping. other games are working fine

  • Has anyone ever found a solution? I only get blue screen when playing Battlefield 2042. I have read the Anti-cheat could be conflicting with something on my PC. And it only happens between matches on loading screens. My laptop has a 4070 in it. 

    Games that I play with no issues 

    Halo, Delta Force, BOP6, Baulders Gate, Final Fantasy 7 Remake.

    I  had BSOD when I switched from Kaspersky AV to MS Defender AV. Went away when I installed Bitdender (free version). Seems the EA anti cheat just didn't get on with Defender.

  • Interesting, I use Defender and always have. I'll have to look into other products and give it a go. 

  • Not sure if it helps but have you tried validating steam files (if on steam) and tried repair (on origin) it worked for me when I used to have the issue although results may vary
