I uninstalled MSI Afterburner - still crashes.
Disabled Performance Autotuning in NVidia Experience overlay - still crashes.
Disabled NVidia Experience overlay completely - still crashes.
I will uninstall NVidia Control Panel now.
There is nothing else to disable, really...
The latest DxDiag is attached; the latest crashdumps are here.
- Flakstar4 years agoSeasoned Veteran@Mad_Madest_Me Bunch of App crashs ( dont use CCleaner at all) and even worse WATCHODG and Kernel 141 entries. This indicates a corrupted Windows installation or HW/Power problem. Reinstall Windows to find out. If you are lucky the crash of CCleaner corrupted your Windows registry and after the reinstallation you are good to go.

@YLD_foxBest bet: upgrade your GFX card or downgrade your monitor resolution to 1080p.
I highly doubt a Nvida Geforce 1650 is able to run BF2042 on a 4k monitor. Some update: after activating directx12, game running as admin and some other outside-game adjustments, the game is not crashing anymore. Still problems of having low FPS, but that was the case with all BFs....

Same deal. 2 games, both crashed today. Been crashing at least 3x per day, conquest 128 seems to be most likely but that might be just my perception. DX diag attached.
**update** played 3 rounds of Breakthrough 128, it died once after the game ended and snacks handed out (black screen before menu reappeared). I tried running as admin, didn't make a difference.
I will continue to observe and report.
**update 2** played everything other than Conquest 128, no crashes. Tried another round of C 128.... BOOM.
**update 3** just blew up in Breakthrough 128....
@Flakstar, I am not sure how your comments are helpful.
I will not buy a new video card just because the BF2042 update is so buggy and I am, OF COURSE, not running BF2042 in 4K.@DICE-Cryphisss @EA_Atic Ok, after Battlefield update on 2/6 (v1.0.71.37562), Nvidia released another driver update (v511.65) and Nvidia GeForce Experience update (3.25.0.84). That Nvidia driver update automatically re-installed Nvidia Control Panel (v8.1.962).
Nvidia GeForce Experience game overlay is still disabled.
All these things together work!
I played several hours with no crashes so far. Keeping fingers crossed!)
Enabling NVidia GeForce Experience game overlay again now...

@YLD_foxyour sys config isnt capable to run this application. The Geforce 1650 only got 4 GB VRam and doesnt meet minimm specs. Even at 1080p the app uses 4 GB VRam. As soon as your Vram is full, the sys will start to swapping more and more data into Ram and this is pretty often a plea for crashs.
Pls, clarify, is this thread about the hard crashes to desktop without any error messages?
I've started to have this type of hard crashes daily after the latest Hot fix update on 03 Feb. Before this Hot fix these crashes occurred once a week or two. I play 3-4 hrs per day. Windows 11, latest nv drivers, gfexp, nvcp.
@Flakstar You probably should read the official BF2042 system requirements before misinforming people in this thread.
MINIMUM PC REQUIREMENTS:
- Video Memory: 4GB
- Graphics card (NVIDIA): Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050 Ti
GTX 1650 on that PC is 3 years newer and 39% faster than GTX 1050 Ti.
On top of this, you are saying that my system is not capable of running this game when I played it 130+ hours on this rig with no crashes until update 3.2 came out.
