Summarize your bug Every time I try to play the game I get a DirectX error pop up. If I click ok on the error box the game crashes. If I don't click ok the game still lets me play but the textures don't load in.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Just play a multiplayer match and the DirectX error will pop up.
What happens when the bug occurs? If I click ok on the pop up the game crashes with a black screen. If I don't click ok then I can still play but textures will not load in.
What should be happening instead? I should be able to play the game with all textures loaded in.

I have tried uninstalling and redownloading Nvidia drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling Battlefield 2042, deleting cache, updating Windows, redownloading visual, and much more. I get this DirectX error every time I play.

    @camer0npghey ! could you Open Start.
    Search for Command Prompt, right-click the top result, and select the Run as administrator option.
    Type the following command to determine the memory part number and press Enter: wmic memorychip get devicelocator, manufacturer, partnumber

    Make a screenshot and post it please !

    Here is a screenshot of the command.

    @camer0npgdo you still got the box where the memory was in ? can you tel me what partnumber is displayed at this box ???
    Did you buy memory that was in the QVL list ?

    ps also disable dls in options/display (if its enable) test your game !

  • @Rokebo73 I unfortunately don’t think I have the box anymore. I have tried turning DLSS off and the same thing happens. I believe this RAM is in the QVL list.

    @camer0npgmwhat you could do is, get back in the bios , LOAD OPTIMIZED DEFAULTS ! THEN SAVE / EXIT
    Then check if anything changed with settings from memory in bios , just dont change anything yet. Try game first and see what happens !!

    IF gsme runs OK,. try oc mem , different profiles , or even manually !

    flashback in dos mode !!!!
