    Hi @OttoVP .. sorry but i don't have anything intel.. i am on a AMD crosshair VII hero motherboard that has NO intergrated graphics device...... 

    Now to get back to my problem.. i have fixed it but am not happy with the solution...

    I have had to create a local account on my windows 10 PC... as SOON as i login to my microsoft account... stops working... 

    So this must be a problem with microsoft... I have reinstalled my PC ... drivers ...  and the same.. does not like Microsoft account...

    Very very strange... it is the only game like it.....

    I hope someone else gets to play thanks to this solotion :}

    i am still trying to find out why a microsoft account is blocking BFV from launching....

    @Theo24550 

    It is possible your GPU is not actually being used when you try to play.

    Make sure your display is connected to your video card and not your motherboard and then follow these steps:

    1. Open the nvidia Control Panel
    2. Click Manage 3D settings
    3. Click the Program Settings tab
    4. Click the Add button
    5. Select the game from the list or click browse and navigate to C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Battlefield V\bfv.exe
    6. Select bfv.exe and then Open
    7. Customise individual settings if you like
    8. Exit nvidia control panel and try playing.

    Please try this and let us know if you are good to go. Thanks.

    @Theo24550 @quonik i see both of you have a prebuilt pc with an integrated intel GPU which i do suggest to be fully disabled in your bios if YOU HAVE AN EXTERNAL PCI GPU (theo does).
    please disable it and let me know

    @MasterLevGa sorry i don't understand what you are trying to explain... why would "moving" the game sort out my problem.... i know i can cut anything on my pc and put it where i want.... i wanted to FIX my game not move it... anyways... nothing to do with install location... microsoft account is to blame ... as i can now play but ONLY with a local account.... Hope this helps someone in the same case as me.. where it would launch... and shut instantaniously....
