battlefield 4 pc game crashes
every time try to play BF4 I get as far as the map press the deploy button and it crashes and comes up with the Windows message; "the program has stopped working correctly, blah, blah, blah . . ." ...
Dxdiag will generate a text file, you can attach the entire text file to this thread and that might help.
As for your new error, try reinstalling the Origin client and make sure it runs as administrator:
You might also want to run the Punkbuster installer found in the Battlefield 4 installation directory.
If you have any firewall / antivirus or similar running also make sure to manually whitelist / allow bf4.exe and origin.exe to run and access the internet.
Hello again, I followed your advise and ran the Punkbuster test and got a message to send the below info to Pb for analysis as the test failed!

----------------------------------
Tests finished.
I also right-clicked the icon as show and clicked "run as administrator"
And doubled checked to ensure firewall and antivirus gave permission, which they do.
I'm hoping the Pb team can correct the failed results of the test and resolve that issue, hopefully that will be the end of it!
I'll keep you posted, thanks again for you ideas to resolve the annoying problem.
If you have any more ideas in the meantime I'd be please to try them!
