is normal when ea ac stops unexpectedly, but i can be many other reasons why bf2042 quits/stops.
Post dxdiag and what troubleshoot did ya already do ?
Cheers
Troubleshooting:
As mentioned I reinstalled the ea app and 2042 entirely. I've updated all the drivers on the PC, short of reinstalling windows I'm not sure what else I can do. The windows logs only indicate that 2042 and ea anti cheat are stopping. Not sure if it's related but, I've also noticed I get a similar problem playing bf3 with punkbuster often. The game will just exit with no visible errrors. I don't have the issue with BF1, BF4 or BFV. The bluescreen issue I have seems specifically related to EA Anti-Cheat. I can't remember exactly what it says but it mentions the file at fault is something like eaanticheat.sys. I do also occasionally get a different error on the BF2042 loading splash saying something like "EA Anti-Cheat failed to load try restarting the application." I've gotten a similar error that says to restart the computer. I'll have to take a picture of it next time I see it. I've attached my dxdiag.
