Re: S6 - Stuck on Black Screen during Pre or End of Round > Requires Game Restart

Weeks ago, clearing the cache seemed to give me 3 playable games vs just one.  Later I updated Nvidia drivers and then every game crashed, I reverted the driver back to the previous one and maybe got 2 playable games.  Clearing the cache had no effect.  Last week I updated the drivers again using a clean install and got two playable games.  Every game seems to creep closer to a crash - more spinning plus signs, etc.  My point is...it seems random and not tied to clearing the cache, One Drive (which I tried pausing that too), GPU drivers, etc.  I agree with the comments that it acts more like a memory leak than anything else.  I reset my Nvidia graphics settings many times before this, and it did nothing to help, nor made it worse.  Chances are, changing my graphics setting was just random luck and the game will act up again tonight.  I'll reply here either way and state whether or not it continues to crash or not crash. 

Recall in the early stages of BF2042 there was a graphics issue that degraded the visual clarity with each game.  I can't help but wonder if one of the devs tripped over that bugged code again...much worse this time.

    I don't even know why I do this to myself, but the game has gotten worse.  Just had a match where all the vehicle textures didnt load...which is always fun getting killed by an invisible tank or jeep.  None of the new suggestions do much of anything.  Crazy that it's been a month with no end in sight.

    So tonight I changed a few FPS settings in the Nvidia Control Panel and my game crashed after two games.  So I went into Nvidia Experience and moved the slider to the far right which reversed some of the changes I had made in the Control Panel.  No crashes since.  I'd assume like last night I could then move the slider to a more playable position but ran out of time.  Especially odd was that previously I was only using the in-game graphics settings and it crashed worse than anything.

    That's all I've got - hope this helps at least one person.
