Have you used the Origin Client "Repair" option? If so, and it hasn't helped. in this instance, go ahead an manually navigate to the nVIDIA driver download website, and locate any relatively new driver and choose the Clean Install, follow through on it, then test the game again. It would seem you may have corruption somewhere.

No success: After trying all that thesolomongrundy recommended, I came to try out your suggestions. By the time I started going through your answers, Origin client changed on me. Not that I was very familiar with the older version either (newbie gamer), I could not find that option in the client to repair itself.
I removed the nVidia driver and all associated programs it installed. Screen looked bad after reboot (low res as expected). Installed the driver I got from nVidia's website making sure I only installed the driver and nothing else. No luck. I thought to myself that I have tried a good deal of options, why not try complete re-install on windows. Did that. Formatted the main drive and re-installed windows. This time I made sure that the driver was manually installed from same as in the previous step. I had only installed the Ethernet drivers for the MoBo and nothing else so that I could download and install origin and the game through origin. I installed Origin, and then the game... No luck. The game still freezes. The furthest I could take it was a minute maybe into the game! it is not consistent when it would happen, but it is guarantee that game game will freeze and take away focus from windows task manager. Only things that lets me have my computer back is the choosing sign out after ctrl+alt+del or shutdown/restart.
I would love to try any other suggestions you might have.
Thank you.
