Started playing 2 weeks ago, on an older computer. The game didn't run very smooth, but was stable.
Decided to upgrade a few components to increase graphics and framerate. It ran fine and looked splendid on Monday, before downloading the 36GB update.
Ever since the update, the game crashes either within 5 seconds of getting to the main menu, or (if I make it to selecting a game, or starting singleplayer) within 5 seconds of being in-game. Crash always causes a full system reboot.
After updating all drivers, BIOS, repairing the game and reinstalling Origin, there was no improvement.
Did a clean Windows installation this morning, followed by driver updates and reinstalling Battlefield. The game still crashes within 5 seconds of getting to the main menu.
There's no error, no blue-screen. I'm downloading Battlefield 1 now, to see if that works.
I've attached msinfo and DxDiag.
Update:
Exactly the same occurs in Battlefield 1.
Next up: try a completely different game, see if there's something horribly wrong with my new components.

Are you overclocking your CPU or GPU? If so, can you try reverting back to the factory clock speed and check to see if you're still running into any crashes?

Thanks for following up!
Can you try one more thing for me? What happens if you create a new admin user account in Windows and use that to launch BFV? Is it still crashing as soon as you try launching the game?
