Further trials:  
Test centre - logged in fine  
Server with zero players - paused for a bit, showed the Friend Left message but then let me into the game  
Server with 6 slots (what I normally look for) - still does the same initial error as listed above  
Server with 40 slots - same error as above

When game freezes it freezes the whole PC.

Don’t run that command here. Gets into game fine, tank gunner seemed to be working this morning. Did 2 rounds of Paracel to try and duplicate the last “SL” crash, and it never crashed, yeah baby!. Part way into the next round on Golmud i get the next generation of the “SL” crash only, this time it just completely locks up my PC. I had it good for so long but the last 2 patches.

No user.cfg inside bf4 folder then create one using note pad paste the setting on the bottom be shure it not ending user.cfg.txt filename should be user.cfg  
and use the bf4\_x86.exe executable in bf4 folder BF4 hope it helps

god damn it don’t ask questions like that!!!  
soft voices, and no sudden movements, otherwise it might crash again  
hopefully this will be stable…at least until the next patch!

This at least got me a black loading screen , but then again: you were disconnected from ea online (1)

EDIT: had to insert “UI.DrawEnable 1” (after the R commands), no it works on x86, but on x64 still the same old error
