Yea might be just this one as the 3 of us have a few of the BF games and none besides this one has ever minimized when any one of us load or play. Thank you, guys, anyway.

Does this help?

If not, try uninstalling and reinstalling the Origin client on the PCs. (It's a quick process.)

    Thanks . I have loaded tonight but seems to only happen whilst one of us is actually in a game playing. We tried about 2 hours ago while loaded into BF without being in a game was fine.

      Hi @warman001, If one players starts playing the other player would get disconnected?

      If that's the case the router is not separating the IP between those PCs.

        To add on to @EA_Atic's post, make sure each PC has a distinct IP.

        You can run ipconfig at a command prompt.
