Every time i tried to load the game it had a dialog pop up saying the game has stopped, I disabled cloud save and Origin in game and now it loads but after a few minutes of game play it freezes and closes. I just uninstalled the game and I am reinstalling, Things got way worse since I had to update Origin today. All Nvidia drivers are current also. Any ideas?

My new setup  
I5 6600K liquid cooled  
Asus maximus viii mobo  
32 gig corsair vengeance @ 3200mhz  
Nvidia GTX 970  
Win 10 pro 64

Did the same with my old setup  
I5 2500k  
Asus sabertooth P67  
8 gig ram  
GTX 970

DX 12 disabled  
reinstalled C++  
Tried a different HD as I suspected my SSD drive

That is a pretty generic windows error message, is that all of it? If it doesn’t say anything else, you should check the windows event log to see if there are any more details about why it crashed. It might list a driver, or some windows specific issue. If not then try stopping any non-essential programs you have running, virus scan, firewall, any of those third-party graphics card utilities, nvidia experience, and run the game again. Last thing I would try is moving the BF1 settings folder so the game will create new ones, those are in My Documents/Battlefield 1/settings. You can just rename the folder to settings\_backup. If it doesn’t help you can restore your backup if you want.

I used c cleaner to clean reg and system, ddu to remove display driver, reinstalled new driver from nvidia, cpu temp max is 41 deg c, stopped all background apps, renamed settings folder, unplugged one of my screens, tried windowed and full screen,. The fault modules from all the crash logs are, bf1.exe, d3d11.dll, nvwgf2umx.dll, stackhash, ss2osd.dll. Seems to be different ones every time it crashes. the thing is when i first got the game it ran flawlessly without any tweaks until the updates of origin, bf and nvidia.

Well one last try, I overclocked my 6600k to 4.3ghz max temp 49 deg c, went into nvidia settings and changed the 3d to max performance and now I’m able to play. Go figure

You could try turning off the “gpu memory restriction” in the video settings. I did this and lowered the antialiasing along with turning v-sync on. I think the game is crashing because it things the gpu is overheating. I haven’t had a crash in over 10 hours and I used to crash every 2 hours or so.  
I am also using the 373.06 drivers.
