BF4 unplayable because of constant crashes
PastorDanThu Nov 07, 2013 9:51 pm
I can't even get 3 minutes into a map before it shuts down and gives me the box:
Battlefield 4 has stopped working
A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is avaialble.
Close program
I have been getting this the past two days.
I have reinstalled the game
Reinstalled Windows 8
Updated all drivers and PB
When I look at the BF4 forums it seems to be a HUGE problem.
Any BK members solve this?
I am going back to BOps2 until this is fixed..

Ive been following the the forums on failures and fixes. I have heard some issues with W8, the inbox driver could be a super issue.
This is going to sound really weird, but here is something we do here in the R&D lab to get some rendering issues fixed up.
Goto:
Control Panel
Programs and Features
Click on "View Installed Updates" top left. Give that a few minutes to load. Use the "Search Installed Updates" and do a search for "KB2795944" or "Basic Render"
The Program name has always worked for us, but when you find it, uninstall it. You will need to restart the system.
This is not a needed program. Its actually a gfx driver that you system needs when you dont have a nvidia driver installed.
Give that a shot and see what happens.

Hey Pastor, one thing to try.
1) log out of Origin & BattleField
2) go to your Control Panel...
3) then to Programs & Features
4) Uninstall Battlelog Web Plugins
5) Log back into Origin and Battlefield
6) It should ask you to install update
7) "run" the update
Hope this works...

I was having issues and called EA support, they asked what browser I was using. I told them IE, they told me BF4 does not load properly with IE, used Firefox and no problems. They also said Chrome works well .

This makes NO sense to me, but here is what helped me complete my first full match in days:
I tried to restart the CPU in Vista instead of Win8, but I had to run the repair tool three times before it found nothing to fix. Oddly Vista NEVER opened, but I went back to Win8 and I just finished my first full match in three days, but then I got the audio freeze just before the second map was done...ugh!
The saga continues...

Some people have said they fixed their problem by launching through battlelog itself and not running origin. just a thought.

I would suggest a clean reinstall of your graphics drivers and Punkbuster.
Also I have a gtx560 ti I could sell if you want to SLI them once you get you issues worked out.

Maybe your Firewall Settings??
1) Control Panel
2) Windows Firewall
3)Allow a Program or Feature through Windows Firewall
4)Be sure that BF4 & Origin is in the list of Allowed Programs.
If not, click on Allow Another Program and add them.
Fingers are crossed for you Sir!!
