Hi tacticaldood!

It can happen that people have only those kind of issues in multiplayer, or like in your case, in the singleplayer campaign.

Please be sure that you are using the latest version of origin and BF3, try to play the game on the default graphic settings and update your latest video-card driver. In some cases, older or other driver builts can solve this problem.

If you checked this, you can try following steps, they may resolving your issue:

Disable Windows Aero:

Right-Click on your Desktop and select "Personalize".

Scroll down and select "Windows 7 Basic".

Disable your Onboard Sound Card:

Go to your Start Menu and select "Control Panel".

Select "Device Manager"

Locate your Sound Card and double click.

Go to the "Driver" tab and select "Disable".

NOTE: This step will turn off your sound if you only have an onboard sound card. To turn back on walk through those same steps and choose "Enable". A couple of players reported that this step helped to resolve their problem.

Update your Network Integration Card (NIC):

Start -> Computer -> System Properties -> Device Manager

Locate your NIC card under Network Adapters

Right-Click and Select "Update Driver Software.

Walk through the prompts (typically "Next" -> "Install the sofware automatically" -> "Next")

Reboot may be required after successful update.

I hope this workaround can help to resolve your problem. If not, please let us now!

Cheers

Have you tried deleting your game save files yet. At times corrupt game save files can cause this issue. Try renaming the save files first. Game save should be located in your My Documents folder, right click on the BF3 folder and rename it to something else.....add _old at the end. Start the game again and then try the campaign mode.
Hope this helps.
