[Major Bug] Crashing with DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED + Can’t Shoot, Sprint, or Reload (Battlefield Labs Alpha & 2042, PC)
Platform: PC
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4070 Ti
Mouse: Corsair (exact model unknown)
OS: Windows 11
Games Affected: Battlefield Labs Alpha, Battlefield 2042, Battlefield 1
NVIDIA Driver: Latest Game Ready Driver (clean installed with DDU)
Crash Error: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED with GetDeviceRemovedReason()
⸻
Issue Summary:
I’m encountering two persistent and game-breaking issues in both Battlefield Labs Alpha and Battlefield 2042:
⸻
1. Game Crashes: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
• Game frequently crashes mid-match or at launch
• Full error:
DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED
GetDeviceRemovedReason: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG
• Clean installed latest NVIDIA drivers (using DDU in Safe Mode)
• Running on a 4070 Ti, no overclocking, stable system otherwise
• TdrDelay registry keys set (TdrDelay = 10, TdrDdiDelay = 20)
• Launch options added to force DX11 and cap FPS:
-RenderDevice.Dx12Enable 0 -GameTime.MaxVariableFps 90 -nojoy -fullscreen
⸻
2. Stuck Input Bug: Can’t Shoot, Sprint, or Reload
• As soon as I enter a match:
• My weapon auto-fires continuously
• I cannot stop firing, reload, or sprint
• Happens in both Labs Alpha and BF2042
• Tried completely deleting config files, disabling cloud saves, and repairing game
• Tried full clean boot (MSConfig), no overlays, and all background apps off
• Disabling Corsair iCUE didn’t help
• Issue may be related to Corsair mouse hardware or drivers — testing basic mouse now
⸻
Troubleshooting Already Done:
Disabled DX12 with launch option
Clean NVIDIA driver install using DDU
Tdr registry edits
Disabled iCUE, all overlays, cloud saves
Deleted and reset all game config files
Repaired game via EA App
Clean boot with non-essential services disabled
Testing alternative mouse to isolate input bug
