    Hey,

    I'm having the same problem.

    WHich setting option are you refer to as "Language Area"?

    Is it the language of Windows, or location setting under Region in control panal?

    Thanks a lot!

    ------------------------------------------

    Update:

    OK, I think I understand your solution now

    Control panel -> Time, Launguage and Region -> Region -> Administrative tab

    Change Language for non-Unicode programs To English(US)

    And DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL error will no longer appear...

Changing the non-Unicode to English (US) will slove the problem of BF3

but additionally it may cause some Chinese program get unstable or cannot display Chinese word properly

so this can just be a temporary fix
