    EA won't fix it because there is no revenue anymore to get with BF3. 😕mileysad:

     

    EDIT: Same problem here with GTX 460

      Cheers from germany.

      I had the same issue. I tried the MSI Afterburner solution, a repair and and driver update from Nvidia. Battlefield 3 did crash more and more often.

      Following workaround:

      If the Dirext X message appears your Direct X installation is faulty. Just check your Origin/Battlefield3/_installer/dirext/redist folder.
      Choose DXSETUP.EXE for a new installation of DirextX.

      This should help for 75% of you i guess.

      If your PC drivers are not up to date this message might appear sometimes:

      "Display driver NVIDIA Windows Kernel Mode Driver, version xxx.xx stopped responding and has successfully recovered"

      I downloaded and installed "Driver Genius Professional". Driver Genius found a new Realtek Audio Driver plus new Nvdia Chipset drivers.

      After this update i had no error messages any more. (since around 4h play time)

      All the best
