Battlefield 1 not working after updating my drivers!

Hey!

I like to play battlefield 1 but lately i've been experiencing some problems.

Battlefield 1 recommended that i should update my driver), so i did.

The problem is that in the loading screen for a game, as soon as the white loading icon in the top right corner appeared, the screen would freeze and eventually crash.

Then i went back to the old version of my drivers and i would be able to play online again.

But on the old version, the loading screen and all cutscenes were very laggy and glitchy. 

But in the newest update the loading screens and cutscenes worked

perfectly smooth.

I've just been hoping that there would come a new update and then everything would work fine, but i've been waiting for a month and theres no new update.

Anyone know how I can fix this?

My Computer:

Intel I5 6600k skylake 3.5 GHz

Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6gb DUAL

I have:

Intel grapichs driver for windows 10 and windows 7*/8.1*[15.40)   ----  win64_154028.4501.exe       (installed version x.x.x.4501)

Intel grahpics driver [15.45] ----  win64_154510.4542.exe         (installed version x.x.x.4501) --- (its the newest driver "x.x.x.4542" that is making it impossible to play online

Please help

Thank you!

Let me know if you need any more information!

    At some point, you have disconnected your display screen, and plugged it into the imbedded chip's video port!  The other port, on the GPU, is the correct one to attach the display to!

    Hi @XTC_Flick

    Unfortunately, I think you are using the integrated video card(Intel HD...) instead of the dedicated video card (Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6gb DUAL) .Because you talk only about the video drivers for your video card integrated INTEL.

    Download video driver for Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6gb DUAL from here http://www.geforce.com/drivers then install

    Restart your machine.

    Now to use only your dedicated video card (Asus GeForce GTX 1060 6gb DUAL) do this:

    The simplest step would be it :go to BIOS settings and disable the integrated card.

    Or:

    Type Nvidia into your search to find the program "Nvidia Control Panel."

    Under manage 3d settings, it might take a second to load (or you might have to click the add button), but look for "Battlefield 1" in the first dropdown box under program settings.

    Box 2 says "Select the Preffered graphics processor for this program," click the dropdown and select the graphics card you want to use.

     I wait a feedback,mate.😉

    Hey

    Thanks for the answer!

    I coulnd't figure out how to disable intel hd in the bios. But i did this: windows+r --- devmgmt.msc --- then pressed dispaly adapters --- then i right clicked intel(r) HD graphics 530 and pressed disable.

    i also downloaded the top download (automatic driver updates) on your link, but i didn't do anything with it besides installing it and logging in.

    But when i tried to open battlefield, it said: 

    Please update your drivers

    detected microsoft basic render driver is unknown. the required driver version is AMD, intel, nvidia, etc. or later. please update your driver at amd.com, intel.com, nvidia.com, etc. before playing the game.

    And when i tried to open nvidia control panel it said:

    Nvidia display settings are not avaiable

    You are not currently using  a display attached to an nvidia GPU.

    Thank you for helping and sorry if i misunderstood anything. Because i am really not good at this.

    Thanks!

    @Gorath_the_Elder

    You are an absouloute legend

    I thought my pc was a rip off for 10k dollars, cause nothing was working for me!

    i ran battlefield on low graphics and low everything and it was still a bit laggy. Now it runs ultra like a beast!

    Thank you so much!
