I recently installed bc2 on my computer and I have also been getting bsods and hard freezes from 20-30 minutes into the game where only a manual power off will restart the system. I read that many people have had the same issues, but I haven't found a solution yet.
I have tried updating punkbuster and also changing settings in afterburner and such, but the game continues to freeze. My computer only experiences this freezing and bsod with bc2. I have BF4, and other games that work just fine.
System spec is
4770k @ 4.5ghz
16 gb 1600mhz ram
2tb 7200 rpm hd
Asus IV Maximus Hero
Anybody have any suggestions? I would really like to play this game because the graphics are really good, and bc2 was also my favorite game on ps3.
What does it say on blue screen?
Some people found that forcing it to run on 2 cores only on quad core systems helped.
Sorry I can't be more specific than that, its been a while since I had any issues. Those were the two main fixes I remember people said worked.
The latest bsod was caused by driver ntoskrnl.exe (ntoskrnl.exe+ 75bc0)
and the first bsod I had was due to atikmdag.sys (atikmdag.sys+ 84e1b)
So I'm not sure what the exact issue is. I've been just getting hard freezes within 20-30 minutes, and those two bsods I mentioned only happened twice. The hard freezes stayed frozen until a manual reset.
