EasyAntiCheat causing major problems and BSODs

EA needs to change its "Anti Cheat" software.

I'm a long-time player of the BF series and have never had as many problems as I'm having with this stupid "EasyAntiCheat" system.

My PC is updated regularly and EVERY time either Windows updates or my Graphics driver updates I get a BSOD mentioning the "EasyAntiCheat" program.

Now some might say "Get over it" it's not really a problem with 2042 - which I accept the anti-cheat they're using is not an in-house program as far as I'm aware. Still, it's a real pain in the rear to get the game to run finally (after countless attempts and then a repair in the EA app) only to get into the game and have my pc crash because of that stupid anti-cheat software.

This can't be happening only to me, my pc spec isn't particularly exotic although it's now a  couple of years old.  I don't use cheats - I never have and never would. There are zero issues with my hardware and the BSODs only happen with EasyAntiCheat.

I'm not sure if this can be addressed, but I shouldn't have to repair the game after every update to the OS or GFX drivers.

PLEASE EA consider getting the EasyAntiCheat system people to look at this and see if there's a solution. I haven't posted my specifications or any of the error messages - but if necessary I can.  Incidentally, my PC is way above the minimum spec for the game.  I ONLY see BSOD's with this software it doesn't happen at all with any other programs.
