The Battlefield 4 Thread 2015

I'm Running an R9 290 stock. No major issues for me. I have had 1 crash after leaving a server on Friday night, but to be fair they were ddossing and I think the server died rather than me actually leaving it. It hasn't happened again so far (touch wood).

I am using older drivers though, so I am not sure if that makes any difference.

I still get the occasional DirectX crash mid game which is very annoying.

try driver 14.4

Do you have a download link plz?

andy_mk3 · 8 Mar 2015 at 19:37

I have just installed 14.4 drivers, updated all other drivers that I could find, audio, LAN, Intel INF etc etc. Let's see if that helps fix the crashing.

I also have a program to keep my HDD powered up, I seem to have some sort of bug in W10 causing my 2nd drive to power down within minutes and lock the computer up while it spins up which is very annoying.

By any chance is that a power saving feature?

I've tried all sorts with that, it's set to Never, tried 300 minutes too but nothing changes it, very odd. Only done it since W10.

Well I guess if that's all that's broken with a beta it's a good sign

.

Still haven't tried it yet.

Yeah can't moan really

Going to see if this KeepAliveHD app works! I think I possibly have the same issue on my laptop, but the drive spins up a lot quicker so it's hard to say.

Anyway, going to have some roast lamb and I'll be on BF for a few games.
