Hi there!

Update with the latest drivers and it will work again. Please report back here if not and you will get further help.

Also, here is the recommended specs for Battlefield 3 [PC]:

Battlefield 3 is powered by the Frostbite 2.0 engine, which is based on the previous Frostbite 1.5, which powered Bad Company 2. The new engine brings a lot of visual improvements and a lot of optimizations as well. However, please note that Battlefield 3 won’t support DirecX 9, meaning it won’t run on Windows XP.
