Community ManagerCheck if you still have any programs like MSI Afterburner, EVGA Precision X1, or Gigabyte Xtreme Engine.
Uninstall any such programs to return your GPU to its default speed and settings. Check if your GPU has an option to disable its factory overclocking.
You can also check NVIDIA Control Panel and test different settings.
Spoiler
Here is how to disable overclocking from NVIDIA Control Panel:
Right-click Desktop > NVIDIA Control Panel > Manage 3D Settings > Performance > Global Settings > Power Management Mode.
If it is set to Prefer Maximum Performance, it means overclocking is active.
Change to the Optimal Power option to disable overclocking in the NVIDIA GPU.
Disconnect any devices from your PC, like webcams, LED Controllers, or any Wireless Gaming Headsets, etc.
Please also disable any programs that might be running in the background that are related to those devices.
I've disabled and disconnected everything I can. Still facing the same issues, if anything its worse since the Season 7 update.
I've had it crash out with directx errors during initial load (getting hung at the prompt to buy battlepass), when loading after joining server, and during and after rounds.
I have tried updating the NVIDIA driver to the latest again, setting the control panel performance settings for NVIDIA to performance rather than quality and reducing all settings in the NVIDIA app for game optimizations to the lowest settings... still crashes.
System is running absolutely stock (zero overclocks on gpu, cpu or ram).
I did a complete clean rebuild of the system from scratch yet again and immediately encounter the issue.
No ASUS software/services installed, no EVGA precision x1, no msi afterburner etc.
The reality is this issue only impacts 2042, has been an ongoing issue for years based on even the briefest of searches in the EA forum or internet and nothing that indicates that this issue is being taken seriously by EA.
I've been casually playing the EA battlefield franchise for years and never had any issues that result in a game being unplayable (it is literally unplayable due to the is issue). Its impossible to progress even if i get to spend a few minutes in game as all scores/progress are lost if the round is incomplete which occurs everytime it crashes.
@retiarius Hey man ya sure there is no armoury software installed/left over?
Youre dxdiag shows an error with Armoury Crate Uninstall Tool.exe
Also with nvidia app an error and some other system apps.Use revouninstaller and check if there are any left overs from amoury crate and nvidia app <-- uninstall , delete everything (scan with ADVANCED option selected/ticked to find registry lines/files ect ect ect and delete them to).
What memory (partnumber) do ya got installed?
Cheers
Please use SFC /SCANNOW in cmd prompt with admin rights to check for any errors.
Reboot system and repeat till there are no more errors.
Als check do a cleanboot if problem isnt solved !
