    Im sitting here typing this grinding my teeth because I spend good money on a computer and bf3 game and nothing I do works

    My computer specs are

    Intel Core i5-2500K
    2x gtx570 (latest driver 285.62)
    4gb ram
    windows 32bit

    Minimum requirements for Battlefield 3
    OS: Windows Vista or Windows 7
    Processor: Core 2 Duo 2.4 GHz or Althon X2 2.7 GHz
    RAM: 2GB
    Graphic card: DirectX 10 or 11 compatible Nvidia or AMD ATI card, ATI Radeon 3870 or higher, Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT or higher.
    Graphics card memory: 512 MB
    Sound card: DirectX compatibl sound card
    Hard drive: 15 GB for disc version or 10 GB for digital version

    Recommended system requirements for Battlefield 3
    OS: Windows 7 64-bit
    Processor: Quad-core Intel or AMD CPU
    RAM: 4GB
    Graphics card: DirectX 11 Nvidia or AMD ATI card, Nvidia GeForce GTX 560 or ATI Radeon 6950.
    Graphics card memory: 1 GB
    Sound card: DirectX compatibl sound card
    Hard drive: 15 GB for disc version or 10 GB for digital version

    I dont meet recommended settings but Minimum is grand, I just set the settings to low and off I go

    But nope crashes again

    I do see the ram is at like 2.71gb In task manager during the game), pretty darn high when windows 7 32bit doesnt even use the full 4gb (not sure how much is uses)

    Iv tried uninstalling and re-installing the game but no luck, tried disabling the sli but also no luck

    Do ye think it just needs windows 7 64 bit and possibly more ram

    I would really appreciate the help here :(

    Headshot my dear friend, we have the same problem you and I along with many users on NVIDIA and BF forums, I had to install a new BIO for my GPU, allowed the campaign to work for about 2 missions then multiplayer lasts about 5 minutes, sorry Im not any help but your not alone, this is sickening to say the least.


    Specs:

    Intel i5 2500k 3.33GHz
    4GB DDR RAM
    650 XFX Gaming PSU
    1155 Motherboard
    Gigabyte NVIDIA 560ti GTX GeForce
    Windows 64 Bit

    Yap 5mins is my average too

    Its really heart wrenching that this is happening tbh

    The few minutes iv played it was unreal, the graphics even on low was somthing to be hold

    I had the same problem, so I joined a server and didn't touch anything until it loaded up itself and it works fine when I do that. Probably not the same problem as yours but I was getting the same crash and I have a Nvidia GTX480.

    If it turns out to be an Nvidia problem you can be sure there will be a new set of drivers fairly quick . Did ye do the old manual punkbuster update ? just incase it might be related .
