I've installed the the earliest supported driver for my gfx card and Battlefront which is 358.50. Will post back with results. If this doesn't work then it's time for Windows 10 install. I don't want to but that's how much I want to binge on this game.
Result was as expected. Crashed mid battle. There has to be a fix for this. I'm upgrading to Windows 10 as we speak. If this doesn't fix it I'm not sure what else to try.

Im having the exact same issue, only difference is i'm running GTX 980M.
Driving me nuts and seems to be most games.
Did you find a solution?

Nah I haven't managed to fix it yet. I've just finished installing windows 10. I'm about to give it ago.

I already have Windows 10. So doubt thats going to fix it my friend.
I've also had Blue Screen of Death linking to issues with Nvidia Graphics so i'm assuming its an NVIDIA issue.

Strange that it doesn't seem to be happening to everyone... It's driving me crazy! All of my games are not working.

I've just seen this: http://answers.ea.com/t5/Technical-Issues/PC-Freezing-and-Crashing-at-random-times/m-p/4958399#U4958399 which someone mentioned GPU fans not spinning. Seeing as I have an EVGA gfx card I thought I'd give it a go.
So I've just installed EVGA PrecisionX 16 which allows you to configure your graphics card. When I opened it I noticed that it said the fan wasn't spinning on my GPU. So I've just enabled automatic fan control and a wering noise started coming from my base unit. I'm not sure if the fans always been off because I've not had the gfx card for long but we will see what comes of this.
I have also experienced BSOD but I thought it was a one off because of the constant crashes.
I'll let you know how this goes.

The above has not fixed the issue. ☹️ This is getting tiresome.

I've been having this issue with GTA V, AC syndicate. The same nvwgf2umx.dll.
Since then have upgraded to 2xgtx 980tis. Tried rolling back to the earliest driver for this card. Tried fixing DX11, tried several other programs, just installed windows 10.. nothing helps!
DAMN nvwgf2umx.dll!
Makes me want to pack up my pc..

Latest windows update seems to have fixed this!
Going to test some more.. here's hoping!

Did windows update fix the issue for you? I've tried to update but apparently windows is already fully up to date. ☹️

Also, if you go to Windows Update it should tell you the update ID of which updates it installed so that we can check if our machines have it. Would be really appreciated.
I read somewhere else that Windows Update fixed the issue so lets hope for the best.

Thought I had it going then. But then nvwgf2umx.dll.

Is this likely to be a game issue or a driver issue? I've tried so many different driver. They can't all be faulty.

Do you overclock your graphics card? If yes, try running game in stock clock/memory configuration.
Another thing you can try is to reinstall Nvidia drives doing a clean install (all previous drivers are deleted and new ones are installed).
On express installation you will not find "clean install" box.

You can try that too: search google for a small program called ADWCleaner; download it from original site (something like toolslib.net). Read the description and if suits you, run it, click clean and reboot. This app solved many problems on my PC.

Hmmmm, This is my gfx card. I think it's factory over clocked. I've never over clocked any of my hardware.
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0146YLI24?psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00
Ill try the clean install option as I haven't done than. I've been uninstalling and using DDU then express reinstalling.
Will see how this goes.
Thanks!

As you said, your gfx is factory over clocked. I think this kind of over clock is not an issue. And DDU is very similar to "clean install" procedure, in fact, DDU unistall and delete every single piece/trace of gfx. Sorry dude, but i think my suggestions will not help you anyway!

Ahhh lame. 😛 I've just gone through what you've suggested anyway. I'm going to give it ago.
- Anonymous10 years ago
I've been having same issue and been following the forum. I just recently set my cpu performance to standard instead of performance via ASUS suite II and toggled the gpu boost on my mobo off. So far so good without any crashing.

A few people in Battlefield 4+3 had problems with their pre overclocked graphics cards and this game uses the same type of graphics engine, you might just want to try and underclock your graphics card with like 15% and see if the error occours.
- Anonymous10 years ago
Since Battlefield 3 / 4, the new Frostbite-Engine reacts very, very sensitive to overclocking. Regardless of whether CPU or GPU! So if anybody have trouble with Battlefront, first try do downclock your graphic card to factory standards.

Ok cool. I'll give that a try. Am I correct in thinking I will be able to do this with EVGA PrecisionX 16? My gfx card is Nvidia chip set but EVGA manufactured.
Attached is EVGA PrecisionX 16 screen shot.
Thanks

OK, So my gfx cards gpu clock is currently at 135mhz. take 15% away from that and its 114.75mhz. I just want to clarify before doing this as I don't have a clue when it comes to clock speeds, Things and stuff.
Thanks!
- 10 years ago
Actually the previous is obviously wrong. 135 is my current GPU clock speed when on idle. 😛 I think I'm going to need some assistance with this.

At "GPU CLOCK OFFSET" slide to all left
At "MEM CLOCK OFFSET" slide to left too (not all left).
Then click APPLY.
Then give game a try!

I think we are barking up the wrong tree here. My machine is a totally different set of hardware to his and we are both having the same issues. My GPU is factory settings.
I think there is a problem with these NVIDIA Drivers and maybe a certain range of cards or a certain build within Windows.
I'm sitting at 60FPS the whole time I get to play and the card is humming nicely at 64 degrees, it can't be the card to blame. Sometimes the game crashes and sometimes I get BSOD.
I've even had it watching movies through Plex.
SFC is clean. Windows Re-Installed (Keeping Older FIles). Ive installed the NVIDIA drivers and removed them more times than I can imagine...
I'm out of ideas 🙂

I'm kind of with you on this. Though I'm willing to give this a try because..... well... why not?
I've made the following changes as shown in the image.
I've gone down by about 20. Will return with results.
