AMD 8970m Strange Graphics problem (Yellow screen.)

I have also posted this on the AMD forums. I am getting this very bizarre yellow screen when I load the game (see the screen shot.) System Specs: Windows 10 Processor: AMD A10-5750M quad core GP...

Update:

So I just noticed something. When I made those changes in the BootOptions file, and Profileoptions_profile file, then loaded the game, and saw no difference. I went back and looked at those files again, and they had reverted back (the changes I made didn't stay, even though I had saved the file.)

    Another update:

    I uninstalled SWBF2, and Origin, and then re-installed them not under Program Files (86x), but rather just under the C drive. I can now edit both the Boot Options file, and the ProfileOptions_profile file, and the modifications actually do save. However, I am still getting this graphics issue.

    Any other thoughts suggestions?

    As an aside not, I looked at my SWBF1 settings files, and nothing seems different. I can run that game perfectly fine, even on ultra settings.

    Another update after fully re-downloading the game:

    It turns out that even though I changed the game installation folder path from Program Files (86x) to directly on my C drive, every time I modify the Boot Options, and ProfileOptions_profile files, once I start up the game, it reverts is back to it's original state.

    @Malthusian77

    Having combed your Dxdiag again, here are some more suggestions:

    • Install monitor drivers
    • Remove any other attached hardware peripherals (ELAN input device?)
    • Free up more hard drive space
    • Have you performed any custom registry edits?
    • What is DLLHost.exe? it is causing some issues
    • Manually run all vcredist files from game install location

    Hi Barry,

    Thanks for the follow up.

    I will have to give these a try when I have a chance. (Later this week or next weekend).

    Not sure if it is related, but event viewer is also showing a problem with atidxx64.dll (i think, I am not home right now) causing titan fall 2 to crash.

    I will have to look into dllhost.exe and where it is installed, it should be a standard Microsoft program unless it got jacked.

    Can't do much about the ssd space, it is only a 120gb drive.

    No custom reg edits I can think of other than removing anything raptr gaming evolved related as per AMD's uninstall recommendation.

    I will report back when I know more.

    Thanks again.

    I can confirm dllhost.exe is installed under system32, so it is likely not been jacked by a virus:
    https://www.file.net/process/dllhost.exe.html

    Although it's file size is 21kb, so this doesn't seem correct.

    I can also confirm that atidxx64.dll is crashing Titanfall 2

    Here is the event viewer report:

    Faulting application name: Titanfall2.exe, version: 1.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5a2711ff

    Faulting module name: atidxx64.dll, version: 8.17.10.648, time stamp: 0x56d0aed0

    Faulting package full name:

    I will keep looking into this, and also try some of the other suggestions you made when I have time.

    Thanks again.
