The anti-cheat crashes my PC

When I play BFV or BF1, but somehow doesn't seem like an issue with BF2042. It only started happening since yesterday and wasn't an issue before.

my PC crashes almost everytime I close the game, regardless of how I close it; closing it with the quit button/alt+f4/the taskbar. It turns my screen black and reboots my PC.

I am 100% sure this is an issue with the anticheat as I was crashing before when simply installing the anticheat or launching the game, which I fixed it by using "open as admin", launch it once and it was fixed.

I've read from another post that this issue could be caused by memory integrity being on/off, which I tried both ways, and it didn't fix it.

I've also read that some drivers could be conflicting with the anticheat, some Asus drivers specifically but I don't have an Asus, I have an Alienware PC (which also has its own drivers). I wouldn't be surprised if this is the main issue. Either way, my PC shouldn't fully crash from an anti-cheat program scanning my files -- Do better, EA.

P.S: this is on a fresh Windows 11 install with only EA Desktop installed and Battlefield V.
