bf3.exe is running, but nothing happens?

I've been searching long for an answer and am getting fed up.

I've been a long time BF3 player on 360 and just purchased the game via Origin for my PC. It's all installed and I try to launch it and nothing happens. It shows that it's running in task manager.

I have attempted the following:

  • Uninstalled game and Origin client/Reinstalled both
  • Made both programs run as Administrator
  • Disabled Windows Firewall
  • Disabled built in firewall with Webroot AV
  • Closed out of Orgin and attempted to launch game from Battlelog.

Nothing seems to work. Any ideas or suggestions? I loaded and played Crysis 3 on this same PC yesterday without issue...for some reason it's only BF3 with the issue.

    Problem solved. The issue was due to value added software that was provided with the ASRock motherboard. Culprit software: VIRTU UNIVERSAL MVP

    Disabled it and it worked fine. Just went ahead and uninstalled. BF3 is working just fine now.
