Frequent Freezing & Crashing - Dumps Attached
As the title says, I'm experiencing frequent crashes. I can play for about 5 to 10 minutes, but then the game world freezes.
It's a weird freeze - I can still look around and hear all the game sounds, but characters, animations, and everything else are totally frozen. After a few seconds, it crashes to the desktop.
My PC Specs:
*CPU: Intel Core i7-13700K
*GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
*RAM: 32GB
Troubleshooting I've tried:
*Disabling all overlays (Discord, Steam, Logitech G Hub).
*Performing a clean installation of the latest GPU drivers using DDU.
*Running the game and the anti-cheat as an administrator.
*Lowered all graphics settings
I have attached two crash dump files. Any help would be appreciated.
I've also included an AI's analysis of these dumps, hope it helps.
Gemini's Analysis:
An analysis of the provided crash dumps reveals two distinct and reproducible crash signatures:
- In-Game Freeze/Crash at address ...142e4ebd0: This appears to be the core issue. It occurs during gameplay after 5-10 minutes when NVIDIA Streamline (DLSS/Reflex) features are active. This crash persists even after a clean driver reinstallation and with all software overlays disabled, indicating a fundamental bug.
- Loading Screen Crash at address ...1409d57f7: This secondary crash was triggered by troubleshooting steps. It occurred when either the Streamline DLLs were manually removed or when in-game graphics settings were set to low. This shows the game client has a hard dependency on the Streamline framework and does not gracefully handle cases where it's absent or not fully initialized.
Conclusion:
User-side issues like driver corruption or conflicts with overlay software (e.g., Steam, Logitech G Hub) have been systematically ruled out. The problem is a bug within the Battlefield 6 Open Beta client itself or a direct incompatibility between the game, the NVIDIA Streamline SDK, and current graphics drivers. This issue will likely require a patch from the game developer or NVIDIA to be resolved.
I tried limiting CPU watt. I configured two parameters:
- Long Duration Package Power Limit: Auto -> 142
- Short Duration Package Power Limit: Auto -> 142I have played 4 or 5 matches without freezing. I think it's fixed.
