    Thank you! 

    I noticed in the DxDiag you attached it looks like there were some crashes associated with .dll files. I'm curious if running the Windows System File Checker tool might help with this. You can find more info on how to run the tool over at the Microsoft Support website. 

    Please let me know how that goes when you've got the chance. Thanks!

Were you also able to run the Windows System File Checker to see if that helps? It looks like some Windows Processes are crashing in the DxDiag so I'm curious if that makes any difference. 


If you need more info on how to run it check out the link in my post earlier from this thread. Let me know if that makes any difference for you. Thanks!

    I tried a few things including trying to fix windows files with cmd but it made no difference. In the end I reformatted pc and went back to windows 10 updated bios and installed all drivers and windows updates and after reinstalling bf2042 it has been working fine just played 5 matches in a row without a crash. I also had an issue with some ram sticks which became apparent when trying to install windows, maybe that was also affecting it.
