    Just wanted to put in my 2 cents as well. Here is an exact copy of the message I received:

    DirectX device creation error

    Your computer does not meet the minimum requirements for playing this game.

    "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780" GPU does not support DirectX 10.0 which is required.

    Please bear in mind I played the game yesterday and the only thing I have done since then is restart my computer. In fact everytime I restart my computer I get this message when I try to play and in order to temporarily fix this I have to redownload the drivers daily, what gives?? (oh and my brand spanking new 780 doesn't support 10.0??? such BS) This is in fact why I bought the card I thought there was a problem with my 560 Ti, but same 'ol crap.

  • Did anyone ever get a fix for this issue...

    I am having the same issue and its driving me nuts.   I have a brand new GPU, two of them.  And I have been playing BF4 for a while now, and all of sudden I am getting this error.  Any help would be much appreciated.    Error Message :

    Your computer does meet the minimum requirements for playing this game 

    "AMD Radeon R9 200 Series" GPU does not support DirectX 10.0 which is required.  

    I am at a loss.   Especially since I had just put these GPUs in 4-5 days ago and have been playing BF4 with no issues at all.   

    PC :

    Windows 7 64bit

    AMD 8120 3.1ghz

    16gb memory

    Crossfire R9 280x

    Asus Crosshair V Motherboard

    1000w Power Supply Corsair

    (running 3 monitors)

    Let me know if you need other info.  I removed all DX files from bf4 and then reinstalled direct x and still same error.

    I got the same thing except I have NVIDIA GTX 660 instead of the other. 

    GOSH, I am raging...

  • Well, sounds like we are all having the same issues. I had a game specialist tell me that the REASON IS, BOTH BTTL 3 AND 4 NEED TO BE PLAYED ON CHROME. Well thanks EA for that last minute change up..... I tried that along with ALL the other posts advice and so far nothing has worked. I tried the sfc/scannow and it came back with NO PROBLEMS TO REPORT.  SO NOW WHAT!!!

    I got the same issue and have no idea how to fix it!?

  • Hi, did you try the following?:

    -Go to Origin options and disable Origin-in-game.

    -Update your graphics drivers.

    Then try to play.

  • As soon as I tried to use mantle by updating my AMD Radeon R9 280 GPU to the latest BETA driver I have had this message even though my computer can run BF4 with ease, I switched back to DirectX and the game worked fine. All I want is to play with mantle without getting this error , any help??
