same

[Nenrv]

Hey guys i think i find the solution (atleast for me)
If you have riot Vanguard close it before launch BF1

upd: nvm work only 1 time lol

[GodsleftAsscheek]

has anyone tried limiting the cpu core count for the anticheat.

Find the anti cheat exe and set its properties to run in compatibility mode

Turning Off High Performance in Windows Settings fixed it for me

im so tired of seeing misleading answers like "change powerplan" do this and apply this snake oil.

imagine someone's car engine got flooded with water, and you tell them wiping a bit of dust off the windshield will fix it - that’s how absurd these solutions sound like.

this anti cheat runs at the kernel level and causes system freezes, likely due to memory violations, driver or hardware lockups, or something only ea can figure out… too bad they don’t even play the game anymore. this is a flaw in the anti cheat's code that is out of the user's control.

same problem

Changing the power plan to Balanced worked for me also. Not saying that will necessarily work for everyone, since I have no idea why this works in the first place, just reporting my experience.

[Ugniusus87]

Try changing your power plan to balanced if it isn't already. That seemed to help me.

I had the same issue and I think I fixed it by connecting the ethernet LAN cable instead of using wifi . I also changed the power plan, put every single EA apps in compatibility mode and "run as admin" - but that didn't help at all.

I don't know, try plugging the ethernet LAN cable.

*facepalm*

Look, i know you mean well, but unplugging the ethernet cable is the same level of fix is doing a voodoo ritual when someone tells you that you need heart surgery.

There is no solution, and all the placebo-esque little "fixes" here only work one time at best.

Until EA fixes their anticheat implementation this can not be solved.

I know, but I was using Wifi as an internet connection so far. Maybe, somehow, the EA anticheat was malfunctioning because of the wifi connection (that was my logical assumption on this matter at least as nothing else worked. It's using internet either way for searching possible cheats). Interesting part - my PC wouldn't shut down, but would freeze completely and nothing would work to the point of me shutting it down myself. Later, I noticed that my integrated CPU graphics driver would also malfunction (error message appeared once reporting the issue to the AMD software suite). I went to nvidia control panel and forced the global settings for nvidia dedicated graphics (without OS choosing automatically) as I have 2 GPUS (one dedicated and one intergraded for CPU). That didn't solve the issue (since my GPU and CPU drivers are up to date, I skipped that part and didn't think that would fix it). Went to every single EA app and forced them to to run as admin and also with compatibility mode for windows 8. Also changed the power plan to balanced. That didn't solve the issue, but the ethernet cable one did. So, I don't know at this point. My assumption is that EA anticheat is doing something to the GPU/wifi/internet drivers which causes them to malfunction and crash the computer. It could also be that I had an enterally different issue, so I have no idea, but it's worth a try, even being a "voodoo" thing to do.

do like me just play BF4

i did say my old PC broke when Battlefield started causing black screen crashes, and yes it may just be faulty hardware but it took about 2 weeks of this torture to finally break

[davidlukes]

yes ea Battlefield V or its application turns off the pc for a few seconds, which then turns on by itself. As if someone pressed the on and off button. Can someone explain to me how this is even possible? I would understand restarting the system, but how can the game/application turn off the entire pc and then turn it back on?

i know there is a system Windows uses whereby if a threat reaches a certain level it will shut down, i actually googled the setting on my old PC when it started to do this, you could change the settings including removing the shut down action but this is all highly dangerous as it can brick Windows and maybe hardware, really i guess it's a setting computer testers might use in the factory - if it's related to this issue i don't know . . .

the anti cheat lives on the same level as your OS it self, meaning it got the highest level of privilege and control over the system... just like the OS itself. no user end trickey can fix this

if the anti cheat were not kernel level it wouldn't be able to cause a full system freeze.

the windows os would easily prevent such critical errors. it would probably just give you a crash window like memory violation or something like that rather than whole whole pc freezing.

EA should fire whoever writing this anticheat. this is a MASSIVE issue. No software should cause you pc to shut down like this. this can damage people stuff like hard drives or cause os corruption, the fact that its been weeks with no fix is insanity.
