Battlefield 1 DirectX Memory Error
Whenever I try to play Battlefield 1, sometimes at launch, sometimes not, I get this error: http://imgur.com/a/Yp0VQ and my game crashes.

Community ManagerYou might try running the 375.57 video driver installation again but this time choose custom/advanced install and then select the option for 'Clean Install'. That will remove any previous, old driver components that could be causing a problem. Additionally, you might want to deselect driver components you do not want such as GeForce Experience and the 3D items.
Do let us know if this clean install prevents this error, thanks.
Tried this several times with no win, certain maps cause more crashes than others such as Monte Grappa or Ballroom blitz, there's a massive thread on the Battlfield forums complaining about it, last time I checked it had over 40K views and 900 reply's yet there has been no official statement from DICE?
Lowering my settings to Low with mesh quality on Ultra made my game more stable, managed to finally play a full game on Monte Grappa without crashing.
Small little add on, I've noticed FPS drops prior to a crash and sometimes my game constantly running at 30FPS for a period of time, tabbing out normally fixes my FPS issue. Feels like the game doesn't scale well for cards at 2GB.
@Lord_Wolfpack @caboosetheruskie @solidhammer @Ricotiene @EA_Barry Moved to the BF1 forum, might be more ideas here.
