battlefield 4 windows 8.1 crashs

I have the same problem.

I upgraded to windows 8.1

Updated Battlefield 4

I can play the campaign. it did crash horribly during the first level when the building crashes to the ground after escaping the helicopter. Full black screen. Start key stopped working. Audio continued to play until the end of the track, Had to ctrl+alt+del to kill in task manager.

Multiplayer has stopped working completely.

I can view the servers in the server browser and connect but get about 5 seconds into the game before i am kicked to the desktop. I can spawn and then it will go into the black screen with the blinking cursor and then to the desktop.

There is no obvious error message when this happens.

Would love to get back into the game.
