BF II not starting

I own both SWBFII and TFII on steam, however, unfortunately, it needs the EA client to run them... I cnanot for the life of me get either running. I've uninstalled, reinstalled the EA App, the games, verified files, checked all drivers, updated as needed. Made sure DX12 was off. Still, no launch. Hit the play button on steam, EA Client opens, then the play button reappears on steam, EA Client, closes, and restarts like nothing was pushed.. Try launching from EA Client, same thing. No errors, client closes, restarts with nothing happening. Super frustrating as it's run before. TF2 has the exact same issue...

    Thx for posting the DXDIAG report.

    Some of your drives have less than 10% of free space, which can be problematic depending on what the drive is used for.

    Also, I wonder if the voicemeeter software isn't playing nice with the game. I kind of doubt it, but may be worth checking out.

    There are multiple livekernel and bluescreen errors showing in the Diagnostics section at the bottom. I would check your Windows system log to see what's going on.

    BTW - Since you bought from Steam, you need to always start from Steam (not EA app).

    Eh, the drives are always in flux. Some stay full, some don't. But the OS usually is the most free. As stated before, I have run the game, and it ran fine, but as of late hasn't worked. THE BSOD's, yeah, I've been chasing those for a bit. Voicemeeter rarely runs. I only use that when playing Arc Raiders (2 pc setup). I have tried to install the game pass version, but it always seems to have an issue with the EA client, no matter where it's installed from. I keep searching.. LOL
