- try to play without any additional monitor/tv connected to ur notebook

- check that game use the Nvidia GPU in "Program settings" tab set "Select the preferred graphics processor for this program:" to "High-performance NVIDIA processor" (1, 2)

- also if u use one display set "Multi-display/Mixed-GPU Acceleration" in nvidia driver to "Single Display Performance Mode" (when u connect additional monitor/tv try to set it to "Multi...");

- also try to change "Power Management Mode" in ur game profile in video driver settings to "Prefer Maximum Performance".

- - close\disable any Razer software, check and close\disable all programs like this

- delete folder C:\Users\[User_name]\Documents\Battlefield 4\ (and don't change ingame video options such as "Display mode" - use Full screen)

- run Origin as Admin, try to play...

My machine is setup correctly, I do not run anything on it at the moment as I am just getting the gaming side set. I will use another none gaming profile for other things. but, I did find a program I would not have expected to give me problems. Thank you for pointing out the Razor (gaming) software. I have un installed it and I am running fine again, even with VPN.

Of course after playing for a while I remember why I dislike BF4 on the PC

All the swapping me from side to side whilst in game. The mass of German servers compared to other countries.

I preferred the XBOX360 because of this. I am now going to treat myself to a PS4 and use that for gaming. No more having to worry about other softwares, endless Nvidia updates and dropping shields for a game.

No reflection on you chap, thanks for your help.

Gaming is supposed to be about time out and relaxing, not this.
