Summarize your bug In BF1, keybaord/mouse become unresponsive, can't control player or vehicle I'm in. Results in me running off map or plane crashing.
How often does the bug occur? Often (50% - 99%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Unknown. But you guys have had this bug show up since BF3.
What happens when the bug occurs? In BF1, keyboard/mouse become unresponsive, can't control player or vehicle I'm in. Results in me running off map or plane crashing.. Although the keyboard/mouse won't let me spawn or quit the game, I can still ctrl/alt/delete and get to the program manager and kill the game that way. I've reinstalled the whole 70GBs of game, new keyboard/mouse, reinstall USB drivers/ chipset drivers. But only happens in BF1, I can play BF4 and Battlefront1 all day long, no problems.
Please select your region North America
In what game mode did the bug occur? Conquest
AMD or Nvidia Model Number AMD 9550 CPU, NVidia 1080 GPU

Thanks for the link to 'DXDIAG here' button above, I clicked on it, and it just wiped out my entire bug report, and now I have to retype the whole damn thing. WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU GUYS AT DICE/EA?

    try updating the drivers for your peripherals, if you have a high end mouse and keyboard such as (razer, Corsair, Logitech) they usually have a software they recommend to download. In there you can change rgb lighting and somewhere there should be an option to update drivers.

    Through no help from EA/DICE, the solution has been found. First, this bug as been around since BF3. And the bug is in Origins Overlay.  THANKS DICE/EA.  The bug happens when you have too many overlays running. Discord has an overlay, my logitech G502 has overlays, origin has overlays.  For the most part, if you have this bug. it's a conflict between origins overlay and discords overlay. Disable one of them to make the problem go away. I disabled my discord overlay and mostly all is good. It still happened though once since that time, and I can live with that. In previous versions of this bug, previous people have stated that disabling overlays did not fix the problem. Well, for my system, it worked.   What I can't live with, is the total disrespect EA/DICE has for its gamers. No cheat system for BF4 ro BF1 ??? After all these years playing this great game and to have to put up with cheaters in almost every server I join. THANKS DICE/EA. None of my clan will be PRE ORDERING anything from Dice/EA. Just not going to happen.
