Battlefield 3 Multiplayer only works when I login a empty server.

Battlefield 3 Multiplayer only works when I login a empty server.

If I try to login a server with players. The game will start the loading screen, but once it finish it gets a pop-up "game stopped working".

Also I can't use quick match. It gives unknown error.

I saved up money to buy this game and now I can't play it. It is really sad.

Looking forward to solutions from this great community. The chat support couldn't do it, I hope you guys can.

DXDIAG FILE for pc specs

Update 1: I also tried most searchable fixes on the internet. So, I am looking forward to someone who had experienced the same problem and how they got it fixed.

  • Solution that worked for me:

    • I moved from Windows 8.1 to Windows 7.
    • I make sure BF3 is installed on the primary drive (OS). For me this was the C:/ drive

    I hope this solution works for other people who had the same problem.

    *This also fixed the "Quick Match" error. I think the issues lays on Battlefield 3 compatibility with newer OS. Exclamation on the file paths/ registries. 

    Update 1: I tried installing this on windows 10. It worked too. But You have to do this right from the beginning and never mess with it again.

    - Make damn sure you install Origin only on C drive. 

    - Don't change drive even once. 

    I tried moving it and it doesn't work again.
