After playing the game for a while my game starts to stutter every few seconds really bad.
It freezes for several seconds, lags, and just becomes a complete and utter stuttering mess.
I've seen videos going back 2 years about this issues and it does not seem to have been resolved....
I've seen many videos on youtube with several 'fixes' tried them all and nothing works. Updated drivers, chipset drivers, bios version, uninstalled and reinstalled the game, deleted the profsav five, deleted the cache files, tried all the fixes I've seen posted and nothing fixes it

My PC
Ryzen 5600x
32gb ram
Nvidia 1070
.M2 Nvme 500gb with 76gb free space
Running on low settings at 1080p
Even if I restart the game it doesn't fix it, even if I restart or shut down my pc it doesn't fix it. The only way I can fix it is if I boot into my bios, only then does it fix it until it starts happening again.
Not only does it affect bf2042 but it also messes up my pc causing it to lag and take ages to load things.
Nothing else on my pc causes this to happen, no other games I play have this issue. I do not know what is causing it but it completely messes my computer up.
And as I said the only way to get my pc running well again is to boot into my bios.
Anyone have this problem? Anyone know the reason or a specific fix that actually works?
Perform 4k alignment ssd , it is something like HDD defragmentation, although 4K sector alignment is about that, it aligns all 4k sectors, so that the system has access to fast 4K write cells. 4K sector alignment does not move files, so you don't consume write cells.
Golden rules:
1. Disk defragmentation is not used on SSD drives (it does nothing except to consume more of the drive's write cells, - SSD does not have a data reading arm, also the physical arrangement of files will not do anything that occurs during defragmentation). Windows admittedly aligns the SSD itself during installation, although after a long time the 4K cells may need to be aligned again. You can find a ton of programs on the Internet to perform this operation.
2. Do not collapse SSD drives to full, the more data an SSD has (more in % occupied space), the slower it reads data. When critically full (70% or more), it can be much slower than traditional HDDs.
3. If your SSD is running very slowly despite the large amount of space (70% of the drive is free), then run a read and write test of the drive with CrystalDiskMark, for example. If the test comes out poor, then your drive is running out of space and needs to be changed before it enters 'read-only' mode. Also install CristalDisckInfo and check the total writes to the drive and see what TBW your drive has. If the write total is 200 TB and the TBW of the SSD is 250 TB, for example, then look for a new drive.
4. If you only have an SSD drive, you have to disable the pagefile paging file (it uses write cells very intensively and therefore quickly consumes the SSD drive, and can even overheat it). Pagefile is used by Windows, for example, when you fire up BF2042 having only 16 GB of ram (what it does not accommodate it dumps to Pagefile.sys). Disabling pagefile.sys when there is too little RAM can cause applications that require a large amount of RAM to shut down. If you have 2 drives (one SSD the other HDD) then create a paging file pagefile.sys on the HDD and disable it on the SSD.
Install the HWINFO software, turn on HWINFO in ,,sensors-only' mode and upload screenshots of the temperatures you have while playing (temps of all components including SSD disc).
Think about buying 16 GB of ram (with the same clocking, latency etc. - preferably the same pair of RAM as you have now)
