This can be done at the link

If you have any USB controllers (or other devices) connected to your network, try unplugging them. Crashes on startup with crash module names ntdll.dll and EZFRD64.DLL can (in particular for the latter) be related to USB controllers or PS2 to USB adapters (for various games).

If you get api-ms-win-crt-runtime-l1-1-0.dll errors on Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, Microsoft has released a patch to fix this problem.

If you receive an error message MSVCR120.dll, go to C: \ Windows \ System 32 and search for "MSVCR120.dll". Delete this file. Go to C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Battlefield 2042 \ _CommonRedist \ vcredist \ 2013 and run "vcredist_x64.exe". Then click "repair".


Not enough memory error

Possible reasons: the game does not have enough RAM; there is not enough space on the hard disk for the paging file; you yourself configured the size of the paging file (or disabled it, or used software); some program is leaking memory (open Task Manager CTRL + ALT + DELETE and sort applications by memory consumption).

Battlefield 2042 black screen

A black screen, as well as a white screen, or other colors, can mean various errors, but most often this refers to a specific problem on the part of the video system, and in some cases the cause is the RAM bar. Also roll back the overclocking of the processor and / or video card, if used.

Solutions to this problem

Try running Battlefield 2042 in windowed mode

Windowed mode on Steam

  • Open the Steam library
  • Right click on Battlefield 2042 and open Properties
  • Open the "General" tab and click "Set launch options"
  • Add -windowed
Windowed mode via .exe

  • Right click on the shortcut of the game on the desktop, and open "Properties"
  • In the line "Object" after the quotes (") add" -windowed "
  • "C:\Games\Battlefield 2042\Bin\Win64\Battlefield 2042.exe" –windowed

Close video capture software

One of the reasons for a black screen can be video capture programs: Nvidia ShadowPlay, PlayClaw, Dxtory and others

In addition, video processing programs in games can cause problems. For example: ReShade, Nvidia Freestyle and many others. Various mods can also cause errors. Use a simple rule of thumb: the fewer applications running concurrently with a game, the better. Remove all unnecessary.


RAM diagnostics

The culprit in some cases is the computer's RAM.

  • Perform testing using specialized software for checking RAM
  • Try swapping RAM modules for different slots.
  • If your PC has 2 or more planks, then try leaving only one.
  • More information on this topic can be found on the Internet.

Battlefield 2042 freezes

Improve Performance in Battlefield 2042

By far the easiest way to increase your FPS is by upgrading your PC components, but you should try the free methods first. Install the most recent graphics driver. Reboot your computer. Reduce the resolution, and also set the low level of effects in the graphics options. Do not use any kind of software "accelerators", for the reason that they can contain malware, and besides, their effectiveness often leaves much to be desired. While you run the risk of infecting your PC with a virus. Reinstall Windows. This method should be considered as a last resort when other options have not worked. The reason lies in the fact that over time, the operating system grows outdated files and processes so much that the work of programs is seriously slowed down. 


Controls not working in Battlefield 2042

Unplug the input device (gamepad, mouse) from the USB and plug it back in. If your mouse and keyboard don't work, try disconnecting your controller and other USB devices.

For Origin

Library> Right Click Battlefield 2042> Properties> Uncheck Enable In-Game Screen
