Re: DirectX Error when launching game

@MissJemmax 

That is a less common DirctX error, check if starting your launcher (Origin, Steam etc) by right clicking it and then choosing Run as an Administrator has an effect here. 

Thanks.

    This actually worked!
    I tried it again as not admin and it won't run but if I start as admin I can run Battlefield...

    However anytime I want to play a different game I have to reboot my PC and start steam as non-admin because no other game seems to like that lmao
