Battlefield 6 CRASHING despite all fixes???
***FIXED***
- I re-updated my BIOS (from my manufacturer's website) with a thumb drive to the latest version BIOS and it seems to run flawlessly now!!! Hopefully this helps with other gamers that have had my similar issues as discussed below:

SPECS:
GeForce RTX 4070Ti
Aorus Z690 Ultra
i9-13900K CPU
DDR5 32GB RAM

*ALL drivers have been updated multiple times to ensure no faulty files
*Tried playing with and without XMP enabled in my BIOS
*Secure boot enabled
*Reinstalled game on both SSD and HDD multiple times now trying to solve the issue
*Disabled all overlays from Steam, NVIDIA, and even discord.
*Disabled and enabled all types of graphics settings in the game to help performance and prevent crashing
*IT IS ONLY THIS GAME THAT MY PC CRASHES ON... ALL OTHER GAMES RUN PERFECTLY FINE

Had this issue since the BETA as well. Nothing seems to prevent this game from crashing 5-10 minutes into each game. Sometimes it can be the screen freezing and I can still look around, while others are where my game completely crashes back to desktop with no error message.

Does anyone else seem to have this issue? Is it my PC?

FIXED: BF6 Random PC Reboots or Crashes (Javelin Anti-Cheat/RTD3 Bug)

Like OP, BF6 would randomly crash my PC (full reboot, no dump logs). Same thing happened in the beta.

System:
ROG Maximus Hero XIII
i7-11700
EVGA RTX 3080 Ti FTW
32 GB DDR4-3000

After lots of troubleshooting, all signs point to Javelin Anti-Cheat tripping Windows' PCIe runtime power management, Runtime D3 (RTD3). This fix keeps your GPU always powered so it won't fall into RTD3.

Fix on Windows 11:

Open Control Panel → Hardware and Sound → Power Options

Select your plan → Change advanced power settings

Expand PCI Express → Link State Power Management → set to Off

*Reboot*

Root Cause
Javelin Anti-Cheat (EAAntiCheat.sys) sometimes “locks” the GPU while scanning, making Windows think it went offline → RTD3 (Runtime D3) → GPU reset → crash/reboot.

I also:
• Reinstalled the game and Javelin AC
• Updated to latest NVIDIA drivers
• Added AV exclusions for
 EAAntiCheat.GameServiceLauncher.exe
 EAAntiCheat.GameService.exe
(Not sure it mattered, but can’t hurt.)

No crashes since for 3 hours+ now. Hope this helps anyone with the same issue.

It is THIS GAME only that seems to have this issue for me. Every other game I decide to play runs perfectly fine.

I was able to play finally play without crashing by moving my install location to my main hard drive, reset global settings in NVidia, and uninstalled and installed DLC content.

Checked temps... they remain in normal range as I have both water-cooled and fans installed.

Temps cant be the Problem, also cause every CPU has overheating protection and a lower mhz clock dont crash your game

As an intel/nvidia high end gamer here as well... I sympathize with you. This is honestly kind of crazy... I crash every fricken match... I crashed in loadout once...

Okay but hear me out... They had 2 open BETA's where this same issue happened?
I just really want to know what the cause of my issues are.
A TON of players have been ready to play this game including myself. We really just want an answer as to what ACTUALLY is causing the crashes and freezes.
