BF4 DirectX Error, GetDeviceRemovedReason
There are plenty of post about this error, but most of them havn't helped me. So creating a thread where people can help me as a individual case to debug the issue. The error is simple. DirectX fun...

Have done the same, even installed Win7 new. No other programs except origin, BF4 . Error still the same. Its Bf4 code!
Welcome to the club. They haven't even acknowledged it's a problem!
I've spent hours with EA technical "support", who are an absolute joke to say the least.This is gonna sound crazy, but ive tried updating everything,and talking to support including getting rather hateful with them. Today I switched my graphics card to an old 3870 and guess what. The **bleep** ran, it ran badly but it ran with no crashes. Im wondering if my 6970s bad or are the 13.9 drivers different for a 3870 and 6970. what do you guys think. how can i test my 6970.

Please try turning off Ambient Occlusion, as suggested by lxgfusionfoe before (thanks!) over here:
- Right click on desktop-> Nvidia Control panel
- From 3D Settings go to Manage 3D settings
- In the Global Settings tab, set the Ambient occlusion to Off
- In the Program Settings tab, set the Ambient occlusion to Off
THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH BF AND ORIGIN/EA WHO EVER, YOU HAVE TO WAIT FOR AN UPDATE FROM THEM, ALWAYS HAVE BUGS

I have this error as well on GTX680. Please note Ambient Occlusion is Off as default.
I am also having this problem. I've had DirectX errors before but this past week I've been getting them at least 4-5 times a day, give or take a few, depending on how much play time I get. I've done a fresh install of windows, changed my drives numerous times, monitored my computers temperature to make sure it wasn't overheating, and since I'm also having my entire computer crash when I play BF4, I sent my video card back to the manufacturer since it was still under warranty but I'm still crashing and now have had an enormous increase in number of DirectX errors. I have no idea what's causing the DirectX errors or the computer crashes but if I can't get these problems fixed soon I'm going to go back to playing BF3 until they get BF4 out of this beta crap we're all having to deal with.Has anyone tried anything else lately?
It seems like once it starts, it happens more frequently.
I've tried everything on this thread and others I've found. It's quite ridiculous.
Will EA ever address this? Because I'd really like to play!
