For those coming here to tell us to stuff it... don't be a moron. Everyone has been looking in the forums.
Just because yours is working ok, don't come here and berate those that don't have it working.
I work as an analyst, and have used three different operating systems with four different sets of base hardware, and three graphics cards (gtx 560ti, radeon 6970, and r9 290x).
There is obviously a problem that goes beyond just having the "right config."
YOU ARE LUCKY, END OF STORY.
My best fix, that seemed to work for awhile, was installing the full DirectX SDK. Again, it didn't FIX it, but the problem didn't reappear for almost two weeks. It's back like a bitch now though. Sometimes I get 5 minutes, sometimes I get two or three full maps in.
Can't believe how many boosts I wasted the first week of the game to all these crashes. ☹️
I'm getting this nasty error every round now. Don't know why, maybe its the newest patch the introduced the error.
Before that I used to play normally.
The error hapens when I'm playing them suddenly I get a screen freeze, sound loop and have to ctrl+alt+del to get back to desktop.
Yesteday I managed to take a screen shot of this DX error dialog box. How can I post it here?
I noticed that the vga temperatures are getting really high also - up to 103 celsius.
Can't even play a round - very sad here!

I'm back to report that I solved the problem.
I didn't have to create user.cfg nor reinstall anything.
The "dxgi_error_device_hung" occurs due to overheating.
Before fixing my cooling system the GPU would get up to 103 Celsius and them hang, crashing the game with the dxgi_error_device_hung.
Other games were crashing to.
Once I got the overheating solved, BF4 worked like a charm for me, as well the other games.
Now my GPU stays below 85 Celsius and everything is running smooth.
I'm playing with video settings on "medium" and I'm getting steady 60 FPS on my rig:
- ati radeon 6870
- amd phenon II 955
- DDR3 4GB
