I am having the same exact issue. BF2042 ran perfect before the last update, now it stutters on the main screen, loading screen, while playing, totally unplayable. Ran a repair, moved the game to a diff drive, uninstalled and reinstalled, deleted cache from my documents, updated my Radeon drivers, no luck. Even at lowest settings and resolution it stutters severely, but only after last update. All other games work perfectly fine. Please help.

Is this what you need?
This is me
@Pennywise888 @jeromeisdabeast @RheyLEW82 @Amitnh Ok lets check what cause this issue!
Coudl you all post a dxdiag please (press WINDOWS key + R , typ in DXDIAG and press enter. DXDIAG will open and run for a few seconds. Now in the lower part of the DXDIAG window there is an option to SAVE a file. Save that file and post it here in this topic !)
Also do a clean bopot and check if there is less Screen lag !!
reboot pc by a clean boot:

Hide all Microsoft services, DISABLE (uncheck) ALL other processes, apps and services !
Now test your game and post results please.
dxdiag included
@Rokebo73 I performed the clean boot and still had the same issue. So either its an issue with steam, origin, or the game itself. I attached the DxDiag file
Hi,
thx for Your help. I did a clean reboot and nothing changed. Its laggy choppy and i have about 20-30 fps. The last updates gave me about 80-100 fps. Every other game is running fine (COD, etc.). Even if I reduce the quality i get more fps, but that choppiness and the lags stay.
I changed two things. I updated to windows 11 2022H2 and i installed BF2042 update 2.1.
My guess is, the update has some issues.
Maybe it has something to do with this:

But why only battlefield in my case?
@Pennywise888 @Rokebo73 this could be the issue but I have windows 10 rn and I am also getting this issue. I did also play the new cod beta tho as well so maybe if we have that in common it changed something

I have followed all instructions and restarted with a clean boot. The same exact stuttering is happening at the same spots, game is still unplayable. I'm pretty sure it has to be something with that last BF update and not my PC. I had no issues prior and all other games still work flawlessly.
Attached is my dxdiag text file.

@RheyLEW82did ya try without controller ? Lower graphics settings and render hertz !
I have already lowered graphics settings, but I'll try the other 2 recommendations. Are these recommendations based off the dxdiag that I sent?? Is there a specific Radeon driver I should be using??

@jeromeisdabeastthat is update (kb5017383) , you could uninstall it !
@Rokebo73 sorry dude tried uninstalling the update and it didn't change the effect on the game. Still getting 1fps at the menu with no strain GPU strain on my ASUS STRIX 3080. I'm also not having this issue on any other games. Attached my DxDiag again for reference

Okay, WITHOUT the (Xbox one) controller, the game runs normal. WITH the controller, the constant stuttering returns immediately. I did just buy a brand new controller, so I thought maybe I need to update the firmware. I updated the controller firmware via Microsoft app, deleted my game cache and the game still stutters with the controller connected, both via USC C cable and with the wireless adapter. Is this a known issue? Why did you ask me to try without the controller? I feel like we're getting close....
@jeromeisdabeastcould you check youre audio please if there is an issue with it atm!
Fix 1: Disable Audio Effects
The audio effects can make your experience more enjoyable, but it definitely requires much CPU usage. Just disable it step by step.
Step 1: Right-click the speaker-like icon at the bottom right corner of the taskbar and choose Sounds.
Step 2: Under Playback tab, right-click your audio device and choose Properties.
Step 3; Go to Enhancements tab, check Disable all sound effects option, and click Apply and OK to save the changes.
Fix 2: Disable Volume Adjustment
Windows can automatically adjust the volume of different sounds when you are using your computer to place or receive telephone calls. This feature is also proven to be a factor to cause audiodg.exe high CPU usage issue. So, you can also try disabling it.
Step 1: Open the Sounds window as displayed above.
Step 2: Switch to Communications tab and choose Do nothing option.
Step 3: Click Apply and OK to save the changes you’ve made.
Fix 3: Change Audio Sample Rate
In addition, some users successfully resolved audiodg.exe high CPU by changing the audio sample rate. You can also have a try. Just open Sounds window and go to the Properties of your audio device. Under Advanced tab, select another sample rate from the drop-down list, and then click Apply and OK to confirm the operation.
Fix 4: Run Audio Troubleshooter
If the audiodg.exe is taking up much CPU usage, perhaps your audio device runs into certain problems. In this case, you can use the built-in tool to troubleshoot the problems with audio.
Step 1: Press Windows + I to open Settings.
Step 2: Go to troubleshoot, other troubleshooters and choose Playing Audio
Step 3: Click Run button.

@Rokebo73 ok I tried the different suggestions you recommended and no dice unfortunately. Sorry to sound like a broken record. Clean boot is also still not working for me. Was there something you say in my DxDiag file that indicated it was an audio issue? I use all CORSAIR peripherals if that helps in any way.
