Unable to launch game
Since the update, I can't play the game and get the following error:

"DirectX function "GetDeviceRemovedReason" failed with DXGI_ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED ("You tried to use a resource to which you did not have the required access privileges"). GPU: "AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT: Driver: 23.3.2
(22.40.43.01-230315a-389794C-AMD-Software-Adrenalin-Edition). This error is usually caused by the graphics card crashing; try installing the latest drivers"


What I have done so far:

-Updated drivers
-Verified game files
-Tried launching from the EA app and not Steam
-Tried to launch w/o my GPU overclocked
-uninstalled the game
-Deleted the Battlefield 2042 folder in documents and relaunched

Each time, the game loads up but will freeze and I have to alt-tab to see the error and force close the game so I can access my desktop again. Is there any solution to this?? I only played the game once before the update and my GPU was overclocked when I was playing. No other games I play have been having issues.


Specs:

Ryzen 7 5800x
Asus Radeon Rx 6700 XT 12GB
Crucial Ballistix 16GB DDR4-3200 x2

First of all :

"DXGI_ERROR_ACCESS_DENIED
0x887A002B
You tried to use a resource to which you did not have the required access privileges. This error is most typically caused when you write to a shared resource with read-only access."

Does your windows user has Administrator privileges,and UAC disabled?

Also:
Try disabling SAM in bios.
Try disabling every option which relate to image upscaling in Adrenalin software.
Adrenalin software also could bug out and show you stock clock but it is not true.
Try zeroing core and ram oc at MSI afterburner then try.
Try updating directx libraries.

My user is Admin, I just disabled UAC.

I checked my BIOS and I don't see an option for SAM. I did not have upscaling enabled either. I also don't use MSI Afterburner, I oc via Adrenalin only.

GPU Min: 2550. Max: 2650. Volt: 1200

VRAM Max Frequency: 2112

Power Limit %: 15

My CPU is not overclocked, its at default. Tuning is also at default.

I checked my DirectX and it is also up to date. Still not launching

Try -
1. Navigating to user documents folder - bf2042 - cache,and delete everything inside this folder.
2. Roll back to previous driver.
3. Update Visual c++ redistributables.
4. Try installing msi afterburner and set all oc to 0.

SAM could ve called on bios as Above 4g Decoding or re-size bar support.
It is recommended to be disabled only if you have issues in games.

Ok, so I did all of those. No luck.

I have Re-Size Bar in BIOS and it was turned off so I turned it on, just fyi.

So i've been trying to figure it out and I found a fix! (For me atleast) The problem I found was in the EA app. I went to the control panel on windows and deleted it and redownloaded the game and let it redownload the app and the game works again. Hopefully this fix works for you man.

With the launch of Season 6 I was getting this error. What finally worked for me (after just messing around):
Go to game directory:
\Games\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Battlefield 2042\__Installer\Origin\redist\internal\
And just manually launch the EAappInstaller.exe, it will tell you it's already installed, run the repair. Log back in to EA App, then launch from Steam. GG

Go to your Start Menu and search for Environment Variables - open first result
See if you have something called GAME_DATA_DIR affecting your game
Delete it and reboot
also ea runs in background exit it in task manager
