Battlefield 4 crashes with every greater version of AMD Catalyst driver than 13.12

Hello everyone!

My Battlefield 4 crashes with every greater version of AMD Catalyst driver than 13.12 (that means i crash from 14.1beta till now with 14.7beta) and i can not find anything related with these crashes for months.
I am doing a clean install every time before i try an AMD driver version (tried with 3rd party tools too) and after the loading screen the game crashes almost instantly.
My card is not overclocked and it does not overheat.I have the ASUS(AMD) HD Series 6950 DCII 2GB.

I tried to lower every Video Setting in-game or even turn it off if it has this option (example Anti-aliasing).
Also my card does not support Mantle so probably my problem is not related to this.

I've seen other people with this problem too.

Edit

I forgot to say that i have Windows 7 64bit.In case you have Speccy and you need more information about my PC here is a snapshot. http://tinyurl.com/o4k28a6

I have been experiencing this exact same issue with my Window 7 x64 (2 HD5870s in Crossfire). I think I determined that the "Deferred AntiAliasing" is the issue. This is how I resolved the issue, go to the Test Firing Range and before spawning launch the options (the test firing range seems to allow the game to continue to run without crashing so long as you do not spawn). Then in the video options turn off "Deferred AntiAliasing". Save then spawn in to make sure the game does not crash. I haven't played enough with the setting to be 100% sure it is this specific setting or a combination of things, but that option can trigger the problem right when I apply the setting. I have also had success using "Auto" settings but YMMV.

Are you currently trying to run BF4 with Mantle? If you disable Mantle and run BF4 with Direct X does BF4 still crash? If it doesn't use Direct X until the next driver version comes out and then try again. I say this because many users report crashes with Mantle that no longer happen when Mantle is disabled.

You I think.

Also, how do you do the clean install?

I use a 3rd party program (Display Drivers Uninstaller) i used one more but i can't remember it's name...
Also i tried by simply uninstalling the drivers without 3rd party programs and everytime before i install a driver version i clean the registry.

My guess is that your registry is somehow been corrupted in a way that is very hard to fix. Using several softwares and uninstallers has probably just made it worse.

You might want to try http://treexy.com/products/driver-fusion several times to remove the drivers after you have used the official AMD uninstaller (always reboot after running each uninstall/program).

If that doesn't work I would probably just do a format of your operating system, starting over from scatch.

Ok but the first times -monts ago- when the 14.1beta was out (the first driver version after 13.12) i was not using 3rd party uninstallers and i was still cleaning my registry so i can't really find the solution.I mean after i tried the 14.1beta and the next stable one (i can not remember the version) i searched for these uninstallers and more people had this problem and used the 13.12 version.
Format is getting closer and closer...:mansad:
Edit
I am not sure but i think i formated my pc once the last months so...
Either way i am going to keep you updated.

For me it is "Mantle refunction error"
