Well good luck then. Let us know how it goes. BF 3 is by the far the worse experience i have with stability on the PC. All other games so far no problem. Maybe its time to upgrade to 64-bit after all.

EDIT: Also check if ur GFX is multi-GPU, since ive heard and experience when SLI, got issues. Mine was hd4870x2 so is crossfire. Was really unstable. But after Disabling Catalyst AI, it was very much better, though it crashed at the wall too (hence the bededit thingie). Funny thing is, the crash at the wall only happened after the last update.

I have no issue with my SLI, not at all. I was having issue with Realtek audio driver, solve it within a day then no crashing until today.

Did you update to latest patch? Yeah the realtek audio driver thingie is another one.

I updated to the 3.9gb patch yesterday. Tried campaign without any incident. though im currently at the russian mission. Im wondering if problem is specific to
levels.

EDIT: Bro urs win 7 64-bit le.....64-bit seems to work well for battlefield 3. biggrin.gif

Ive got 32-bit too. but my gfx is AMD. oec88 suggestion abt the sound may help if u have a realtek onboard sound. Mine is not as it is coming for the gfx card via hdmi.

EDIT: I initially had problems too due to not enuff memory and also the Crossfire thingie. What i did was basically, disable catalyst ai, do the bcdedit thing and update to latest patch. Also, I did a lot of graphic tweaking.

Side Note: I read somewhere that BF3 actually does some dynamic overclocking to ur gfx card hence the unstability. They mentioned for nvidia, they have to underclock from stock to get stable. The strange thing is that ur multiplayer is ok.....hmmmmm

Its alright so far.. Sometimes when i try to join a map my bf3 will stop working as well.. But so far when i join a game i have not DCed before. Not yet at least. Hope it will stay that way sigh. Ill try to upgrade to 64bit this weekend and underclock a bit and see if i can play the campaign. Honestly, i feel a little wierd playing the multiplayer without playing the campaign first lol
