Game going slow
Hello everyone,
my machine will be described at the bottom of this topic. 3 days ago I started having difficulties with my Battlefield games. The games (speaking about 3,4 and Hardline) started running extremely slow, even the loading screen started lagging, the sounds were played in loop like and it is almost impossible not only to press any button, but to play the games at all.This started from all of the sudden, I didn´t make any hardware or software changes and it´s really getting on my nerves sice I really would love to try Battlefield Hardline. Everything else on my computer works fine (other games mostly speaking), so it´s not an issue with my computer. All help would be really appreciated. Thank you
My system specs:
CPU: Intel Core i7 4770 (no overclocking)
RAM: 2x4GB DDR3 1066MHz RAM
HDDs: WD Caviar Black 1TB + Kingstone 128GB SSD (Origin and all the games are installed on the bigger one)
GPU: Geforce GTX660
MB: Gigabyte Z87P-D3

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-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Make Sure BF4 is set to 64bit if your windows is 64bit.
1- open origin and go to My Games
2-Right click BF4 and go to Game Properties
3-Under when launching this game set it to x64 and check off disable origin in game.
4- Hit apply and test you BF4...................................................................................................................................
Others have said if they uninstall MSI Afterburner issues and crashing is stopped. So if you have this installed remove program and test BF4. Also look at other programs

Test your windows for errors
This works in all windows O/S vista win 7,8 and 8.1 windows system file checker :]
...... sfc /scannow ..... ever hear of it if not your going to love this .... it will inspect all the important windows files as well as the windows DLL files. If windows system file checker finds any issues with the windows files and windows DLL files it will replace them. This little tool as well as the event viewer saved me and fully helped me fix my BF4 issues as well as saved my .... many a format since I found it. This is the best toy they ever put in windows :]
1 - Open administrator command prompt and close web pages and programs like origin.
2 - Type or copy and paste in sfc /scannow and hit enter, This takes 5 min to 15 min SSD vs HD
3 - This can go one of a few ways ..... no errors ... it fixed some errors ..... could not fix all errors...... does not finish checking and errors out ....... and the last one could not fix errors at all :/
4 -After its done reboot and do it again even if you had no errors the first time or had errors, could not fix ... run sfc /scannow again and when its done a second time reboot. You need to do this a and get no errors 2 x in a row ...
5- So if you ran it 2x and no errors your safe you can stop now for now lol, If you had errors first time but not the second then run sfc /scannow again and when its done reboot. You need to get could not find any errors 2 x to be safe. If it still finds errors try and run it a few more times until it finds no errors 2x AND ALWAYS REBOOT BETWEEN RUNNING sfc /scannow
6 - If you get a message indicating that it can not be repaired and you ran sfc /scannow 2X in a row on win vista or 7 mm you need a format :/ But after format and all updates are done run sfc /scannow to make sure your windows is stable same deal 2x error free reboot between, then If your O/S is Win8 or Win 8,1 then you can run this next command / line in administrator command prompt. Sadly this does not work for win vista or 7 :/ It will restore the health of your PC and you dont lose anything
dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth ------- ONLY works for windows 8 and 8.1
7 - When its done reboot________________________________________________________________________________
