PC-Game Freezes while loading match

Ok so I updated my Radeon R9 390 to the latest drivers in order to play Battlefront 2. Today I decided to play some BF today and the game loads fine but when it finds a match and begins to load the match the game along with my system freezes. I was able to play no problem prior to updating my graphics card, I rolled the driver back and the game still freezes when loading a match. I also tried uninstalling the game and reinstalling it as well as rolling back the graphics card to when I bought it two years ago, still same problem. I also did a hard system wipe and install still nothing. Ive included my DxDiag information. I received no system messages or blue screen messages.

Quick Run Down of System:

OS: Windows 7 64 with SP1

CPU: AMD FX-8350 (8-core at 4.0ghz)

RAM: 8GB

    @chill1184  Sweet good on you so what's it doing now with BF1 with the 16 GB of ram? And did you do all this for settings...

    Nvidia BF1 settings .... look for same things in CCC for your AMD video card....

    First step open Nvidia Control panel under 3D settings go to Adjust image settings with preview

    Pick use my preference and set it to performance and hit apply.

    Next go to Manage 3D settings, Program settings tab and add BF1

    Once BF1 is added in Program settings tab make sure in Adjust image settings with preview is still set it to performance

    In game video settings right side set to custom and set everything to low for testing but turn off ....

    1-antialiasing post off
    2-ambient occlusion off

    Also make sure GPU memory restriction is OFF

    @2042isNotBFTried all that with the new Radeon RX460 that I bought and still got the same issue. At this point I think I'm just SOL

    @chill1184 I am so not great with AMD stuff as I never use it, so correct me if I am wrong but the Radeon RX460  has only  2GB GDDR5 or did you get one of the 4GB models available and sadly it may not work well due to its design :/ .

    http://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/amd-radeon-rx-460

    Sadly the RX460 card does not meet the recommended specs so this could well be the issue :[ ..

    Recommended Requirements this will play well anything lower in PC specs will make issues :/ 

    OS: 64-bit Windows 10 or later
    Processor (AMD): AMD FX 8350 Wraith
    Processor (Intel): Intel Core i7 4790 or equivalent
    Memory: 16GB RAM
    Graphics card (AMD): AMD Radeon™ RX 480 4GB
    Graphics card (NVIDIA): NVIDIA GeForce® GTX 1060 3GB
    DirectX: 11.1 Compatible video card or equivalent
    Online Connection Requirements: 512 KBPS or faster Internet connection
    Hard-drive space: 50GB

    @2042isNotBF@ragnarok013You guys want to hear something funny? After giving up, I decided to give it one more go and was able to figure out that Avast Anti-Virus was the culprit, uninstalled it and was able to play the game no problem
