> [@](#): > > _Kikitu said:_ > No file on my directory, tried everything and the game keeps crashing to desktop without battlelog errors, just "Bf4 stopped working" > > I connect to a server, map loads, freezes at black screen before the battlemap load and crashes after that Getting exactly the same here. Running the Battlelog on a second screen and get “Game disconnected: you were kicked from the game.” on the browser. Also notice when logging in a message in top right saying “Friend left, joining cancelled” or something like that. ---

Just to confirm I was one of the many that had the sound loop crash issues (since 13/2). With this new patch, I had the problem described in this thread. Following the instructions by removing the entry from my user.cfg has solved it. I have just played 2 hours Firestorm. Happy again!! ---

> [@](#): > > _Gervan77 said:_ > I installed patch 25 Feb, PC. Game crashes on load. Crash to desktop with "BF4 stopped working…" I tried above method, but only able to play 3-5 minutes before crash to desktop. I deleted "UI.DrawEnable 1". It works, again for 3-5 minutes before crashing. I notice that the command line 9UI.DrawEnable 1" gets put back into the file after each launch. Is this suppose to happen, or is it suppose to be deleted for good? I have the same issue ---
