Try this stuff and do all settings , look at every program on PC turn off one at a time and test BF4.
Disable Mantle and try Direct X
Others have said if they uninstall MSI Afterburner issues / crashing is stopped. So if you have this installed remove program and test BF4. Also look at other programs as Fraps, Geforce experience, be sure to turn off the streaming function that is enabled by default ,Raptr, ASRock eXtreme Tuner and xfire are known to make issues as well. And I am sure more programs not in my list yet turn one off at a time and test BF4. Since last patch more programs now give issues :/
Uninstall the HD Audio Driver from the video card driver install add/remove programs. This silly thing makes issues in BF4 for some. Reboot then repair BF4 to be safe.
Another thing to try is re- install origin only.
Run the game as Administrator:
Go to the Origin games folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield 4) and find Bf4.exe. Right click it and go to PROPERTIES, then COMPATIBILITY and check the box next to RUN THIS PROGRAM AS ADMINISTRATOR.
Do the same with BF4_x86.exe as well.
Run Origin as Administrator:
Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin and right click on Origin.exe and go to properties. Then go to compatibility tab and check the box next to RUN AS ADMIN.
Disable Origin in game:
In Origin - Application settings - Origin in Game - disable Origin in game
Origin Cloud Storage turn it off
Origin, settings, General
If all this fails to fix it then try this...
BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues. Even if its not a new install it is still worth trying as the game cfg could be mucked up.
1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
3-Repair BF4
4- When done go test your game. If it fails reboot your PC and run repair game again and test BF4.

EDIT: **bleep**. The problem is back and when I tried to play the campaign after what you said to do, all my progress was gone. On battlelog it showed my progeress but when I wanted to play, it started from Baku!
That is a glitch in single player as far as I know and it is only due to last week I played single player from start to end. Then I wanted to go back to one area on single player and it would not allow me to same thing took me back to Baku :/
You may need to run repair game a few times to fully fix this error on the video card driver not responding. A trick I found with repair game is run it then reboot the PC and run repair game again . And if this fails to fully fix it after say 5 x then you may need to do a fully clean install of new or beta driver.
Edit.... for now the topic is marked as solved if this does not work then you can un mark it as solved
Ok. I will try the earlier steps too.
Nothing works ☹️ I'm sorry but your answer is not the solution. Pls help me!
I am looking for your fix ColonelNightmare, have you ever tried to change your video card driver this way if not it is worth trying.
Get new video card diver or beta on desktop we need to get you a fully clean install of it after steps below.
You to do download CC cleaner the free version and install CC cleaner on your PC.
http://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download
Remove the video card driver using the tools area of CC cleaner then reboot the PC.
When windows loads it will install a driver thats normal no big issue, once back on desk top then open CC cleaner again.
This time go to the registry area and scan for issues , then pick fix selected issues it will give you the choice to do a back up. Then pick fix all selected issues you may have a ton of issues if you never have used this before its normal.
Then reboot your PC again and do all the registry steps again until it finds none. Reboot your PC after you do each scan on registry. Once it finds none then move to the next step.
Now install the video card driver new one or beta when done reboot.
Next test bf4 if you still have issue ....
Try repair game or do this step again as the BF4 cfg could be messed up.......
BF4 folder in my documents holds game configs and screen shots even if BF4 is installed on different drive. When you uninstall BF4 it does NOT remove this folder. So when you install the game again you can still have the same issues.
1- Go to my Documents and remove BF4 folder place it on your Desktop or trash.
2- Be warned you do have to set up your in game settings again.
3-Repair BF4 If it fails reboot your PC and run repair game again and test BF4.
4- When done go test your game.
Now test BF4 again
If this fails to help then I will need to see errors from your PC event viewer from the crash.
