Yep, both BF V and BF 1 are working with the same anti-cheat system. The culprit are AM4 and AM5 architecture interactions with the javelin anti cheat system.
EA Anticheat TeamThis same version of the anticheat is on 14 different titles, with only minor configuration differences for BF1 and BFV.
I will take a look further at your data in the morning.
Do you experience these problems with BF2042 or FC, F1, Madden?
I only own Battlefield 1. The only reason why I also included BF V in the title is due to the sheer amount of posts I've seen with the same symptoms as mine on other BF V forums . I made the connection (what they have in common + the freeze that suggests kernel privileges) and it all points out to the same issue between the games and that issue being the anti-cheat. It seems that the comments here and in the previous linked post indeed prove my idea to be true.
I would be happy to test the other games but I don't own them, sorry. Maybe there are similar posts like these on those forums as well? Or perhaps the changes done to BF 1 and BF V specifically interact badly with AM4/AM5 architectures?
On a second note, do you think I can play the campaign without my PC freezing? Is the anti-cheat active during SP missions?

Got it. Awaiting an update from you once this is fixed or if I can help any other way.(preferably not having to launch the game again since I already crashed my PC almost 10 times trying fixes 😂😂)
Also don't forget to check the other post I linked, perhaps some of the comments there might help you.
If I may add my two cents to this thread, this issue plagues BF1,V and 2042... I personally have zero issues on FC 25, or even BF Labs.
Moreover, I noticed that the freeze happens exactly when EA Javelin bootstrapper/launcher disappears from Task Manager.
