Still no fix. Season 5 coming in about three weeks. Finger crossed for a fix at that point.
After 24th May update, same crashes when game is minimized. Updated Nvidia drivers yesterday and for 30 minutes I couldn't believe it: they fixed it! And then it crashed... DICE PLEASE FIX THIS BUG FOR SEASON 5.
- Rokebo733 years agoSeasoned Ace@zobizoba1 It is possible youre gpu driver and hardware got issues !
Multiple monitors/tv connected with different resolutions and Hz settings can cause errors/issues.
Disconnect all hardware dongles, controllers , hubs , ect ect ect
, ONLY keep 1 mouse , 1 keyboard , 1 headset and JUST 1 MONITOR connected !
Disconnect hardware when pc is shutdown, now boot windows, windows will change CFG.
Now reboot again, DO NOT CONNECT OTHER HARDWARE.
Test game and update us please !!!!
Thanks - 3 years ago@Rokebo73 there's no way it's caused by GPU driver or hardware issues. It started suddenly around season 3 and persisted across many updates of my GPU (Nvidia) and even a Windows reinstall. Other users reported the exact same problem with different setups. It's definitely a bug within the game. It hasn't been fixed presumably because so few people at DICE are still working on the game (everyone else is on the next BF game).

Updated Nvidia drivers then downloaded season 5, hoping they fixed the issue.
Nope! Game STILL does not support ALT-TAB.
What. The. Actual. Hell.
- Rokebo733 years agoSeasoned Ace@zobizoba1 i got no issues when i use ALT+TAB.
Some configuration at youre system cause issues with this key combo.
So it could be hardware and/or software related.
To investigate this issue , post dxdiag (again if ya already did so).
PS does alt+tab not work at all ? or is it a BSOD? GHame get stuck , post youre details please !
What troubleshoot did ya do al;ready ?

Also no issues here with using Alt+Tab now I think about it.

Just performed dxdiag and attached it to this post.
How long did you stay on Windows after ALT-TABing the game? For me the crash usually occurs after a few minutes but once it took half an hour to occur. Maybe you didn't wait long enough?
To describe the issue again, ALT-TAB does work fine but while on Windows (with the game reduced after ALT-TAB), the game eventually crashes with a Windows blue screen showing for a second followed by a return to Windows with the following fatal error message:Again, this issue started out of the blue from around season 3 without me changing anything on my machine. I tried reinstalling the game, reinstalling Windows. The problem persists across game updates, across NVidia driver updates. And I'm not the only user reporting this issue. So it is VERY UNLIKELY to be caused by a software or hardware issue on my machine.
