Re: BF2042 crashed when connecting to the server at the loading screen

No, it's desktop. Dxdiag.txt is attached.

What I did:

Reboot.

Reinstall ea app.

Roll back AMD driver from 24.9.1(lastest) to 24.2.1 or 24.4.1.

Delete anticheat files.

Using steam checking the integrity of game files.

I can launch BTF1 without it crashing, but once I join a battle or story mode, it crashes.

I can't customize soldiers either, and I guess it crashes once it needs to load 3D models.

    @Azunyaya  Your dxdiag does how errors with RADEON and ATI software.
    This ati software for the ATI Hotkey feature.
    And this radeon software for your GPU ? (or other tools/hardware thats connected -> fans , pump , rgb ect ect?).

    Cheers

    PS some software got a special uninstall tool (check manufacture website) to uninstall their software.
    Pre download latest GPU drivers and chipset drivers (also from manufacture website) before ya use this uninstall tool.

    I used amdcleanuputility.exe to completely uninstall RADEON related software, but I don't know if ATI software is related to it.
    Then I downloaded and installed the latest graphics driver from AMD again, without installing RADEON software. But it still didn't work.
    Attached is the dxdiag after I did this series of operations.

    @Azunyaya  Hey man
    In the search bar, type cmd.
    Right-click on cmd.exe and select Run as Administrator.
    Type SFC /scannow and press the Enter key.
    Wait till its done , will need a few seconds/minutes, depends on system.
    After SFC /SCANNOW is done,  ya should reboot system


    Re-enter Command Prompt as Administrator and run these:
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /scanhealth
    dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

    Test game and update us.
    I also see a lot of errors are fixed in dxdiag2 and not being shown anymore.

    Cheers

    ☹️

    I think I found the problem.
    I checked the Windows system error log and found that there were two disk errors every time I started the game. So I checked the SSD where the game was installed and found that there were many bad sectors. I thought I should prepare to back up the data and replace the SSD.

    Sorry for the trouble I caused.
