Thanks for replying, here it is.
I'm not sure the Win patch did this. It just started happening and the game doesn't really crash, it just locks up when loading. It'd resume eventually if I don't do anything.

Can you test this video driver just to be sure it isnt driver related , be sure to select custom install and tick clean install

It didn't stop the problem.

Given what you have tried , it wouldn't appear to be a game file issue
Is there any change if you use ALT + Enter to take the game to window mode ? does this also occur in window mode itself afterwards

From the crash details in the dxdiag can your press the windows key + R and type services.msc and press ok
scroll down to geolocation , click on it and right mouse click and select properties and then go to startup type and select disabled
Just wan to disable this to see if it has any relation to what is appearing in swtor
Be sure to stop that service or reboot before trying swtor

Disabling geolocation and rebooting didn't help. And it happens in fullscreen, fullscreen windowed, and windowed.

Ensure both launcher.exe and swtor.exe are in all the exception lists for the anti virus and firewall.
Try taking the system to a clean boot per this link , if using bitraider they will need to stay enabled.
On that note if you want to remove bitraider in case it is per this link

Still appeared in safeboot and after making sure it was added as an exception. =(
When I reinstalled I mostly copy/pasted the game folder contents and only really lost my settings. About the only thing I haven't tried is just deleting my game folder and re-downloading from scratch. That'll take more than day though.

Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\BioWare\Star Wars-The Old Republic\swtor
and delete just the file called diskcachearena see if any change
if re-installing do it bitraider disabled as er my last post

Holy * deleting diskcachearena worked. Thank you!

Welcome, I discounted that file initially as i presumed you did a complete new game install already
Glad it is sorted
