I couldn’t find the named update which supposedly caused the crashes I had after the last patch (a month or so), but manualy install a feature update (amd64 something…) via Windows update settings fixed the crashes for me. So - try to manualy check whether there are Windows update available. ---

All your repair tools are total BS. I have tried everything from all firmware and software updates to whatever. My findings are DX12 makes the game crash DX11 works ok, but is ~30-50% less fps with latest nvidia drivers Just use nvidia 417.01 drivers - those are stable with BFV. Ive got 2700x 32G gskill 3200 970pro ssd 2x 2080ti (using only one) EDIT: This was a mistake, 417.01 crashes all the same The 417.01 gives ~10% decreas in fps with DX12, but NO crashes. Ill be testing newer drivers on the fly, but will use 417.01 for stability. ---

The 1 thing that works for me to not crach is to turn OFF dx12 and turn ON future frame rendering. If no future frame rendering my nvidia 1080 works only half the power (i wouldnt be using it if i did not have 120 monitor). ---

As i sed if u want more power from GPU u need turn on future frame rendering ON on dx11. Or You could try in Nvidia settings on BF5 change future renderings to number “2” 9but not always works for me. ---

I’ll have to see how this latest patch runs when I play tonight, but the only way I haven’t crashed during a game session since the last patch before this newest one was to run in borderless windowed mode. I have no idea why, but I’d crash every game session before playing in fullscreen (which is how I normally run my games). ---

Nobody wants future frame rendering. The input lag in intense game is awful. What i\ve tried now also: Did all kinds of stress tests (memtest, prime95, furmark … etc) - all clean. Usually I had cpu clocked @ 4G and mem @3200 xmp (no errors, crashes, artifacts in any other game). So I tried 0 OC, all defaults. … and bfv crashed. Sometimes it crashes so that the screen gets locked for 2 seconds and then it throws me back to desktop, sometimes its straight to desktop. Windows does not crash. So I put back oc(4.1GHz) and D.O.C.P - yesterday game ran just fine - no crashes, no stutter. Temps are fine: [[email protected]](https://battlefieldforum.co/cdn-cgi/l/email-protection) , cpu @40-50C Oh, yea and the PSU is 1200W, all voltages are ok, so no probs there. What is also totally random are the random lockups/cpu spikes. Yesterday (04.07.2019) the game ran as it should be without any stutter. I have no other noteworthy apps open, the nvidia GPU activity monitor shows nothing else to prey on gpu, cpu loads are ok. All the awful services that made the lockups extra choppy are stopped (onedrive, sysmain (memory prefetch), gaming mode, nvidia overlay, origin overlay). Only steam, origin and discord are running. I even closed chrome as it consumed some gpu (yes i disabled HW acceleration in chrome, but still). ---

For what it’s worth, a disabled virtual memory a few weeks ago and havent had one single crash to desktop since. I have 32GB of RAM in my system. I use DX12 without FFR ---

Followed article from OP in [#2](https://battlefieldforum.co/t/fixed-game-crashing-to-desktop-after-patch-today/107787/2). Seemed to have worked for me. Everything is a lot smoother, even the menus where they would stutter before when they would load. I would classify this as a workaround though as it seems Origin client is to blame. I will also blame BF5 client for not handling caching correctly. I have been crashing after 30 seconds in every single game until this evening after clearing out the cache. If it helps anyone else, below are my PC specs and game settings. DX11 Future Frame Rendering On Ryzen 1800X 16GB RAM Running game off a M.2 SSD GTX 1070 Standby RAM not cleared out before playing the game. Nvidia drivers 431.36 ---

Had the same issue did the above of clearing my cache, it didn’t work. Then I went to my library and clicked on BF 5. Then clicked on the gear and said check for updates. It downloaded something and now the game is working. Hope it works for everyone else. ---

It is imposible to play a full game with crashing problems. You are trying to do the best game and kill, and in the middle of the game battlefield crash. Every day 2-3 times. I am boring. This game is a and the developers are joking of us.
