Same issue for me - much better since the BF4 Dice Update and the AMD Catalyst 14.2 Beta. I played for 5 hours straight with no issues but today
Mantle function
"grWsiWinReleaseFullscreenOwnership(displayHandle)" failed with GR_ERROR_DEVICE_LOST.GPU: "AMD Radeon R9 290 Series" (26545), Driver.37752832

Issue has been reported to the AMD Beta Feedback team :manhappy:
I can recreate the error - die in BF4 and while in the 'respawn' screen, and before you are offered a respawn point, press TAB to look at Score and bingo - crash with error detailed above!
I get the same error.
But if i switch back to directx, every now and then i get an error that looks similar to the mantle one. I can't post the details becaus it actually freezes my whole system and it's not in the event log ...
Same error, but only after a cold boot. I get the loading/splash screen, then a black screen with a pale border, then a white screen. Sounds are unaffected. I then have to ALT+TAB out and get this popup window:

This is 100% reproducible for me after a cold boot. If I restart I never have this problem.
I'm running 14.1 beta 1.6 drivers with a R9 290 card.
So, I'm hearing that overclocking may be one of the culprits here. I decreased my clocks slightly and increased the voltage slightly and i was able to play 4 domination games in a row yesterday, thats on 7990 with CF enabled and 14.2beta drivers in DX11. Today I will test mantle.
edit: Never mind that! I'm still crashing with dx11 and mantle on standard clocks and even underclocked ....
