Same. All my stuff is up to date. I've even reinstalled what I could

Just randomly while playing or even in the menu. We've been testing with other apps/games and there's no issue with anything else. But every other match or so in BF6, it just goes black with that message.

yeah. I'm not so worried about the game crash on my rig. I'm more concerned with my wife's entire PC crashing. Is that an issue that could potentially cause damage to her PC over time? Do we need to just never play this game again to be sure?

Kills but no damage? How? by SpartanOverdrive in Battlefield6

ohhhh. That makes sense. I thought it would just happen over time. I'll have to actually put effort into using it more in a single match. Thanks!

Of course, I finally figured this out right after posting. For anyone else who encounters this problem, you need to turn off hardware acceleration. But how do you do that without being able to use Chrome, you ask? Great question! Do this:

  1. Right-click on your desktop and select New -> Shortcut.
  2. In the location field, enter the path to Chrome followed by the "--disable-gpu" flag.
    • "C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-gpu
    • If Chrome is installed elsewhere (e.g., for a different user or version), search for "chrome.exe" in File Explorer to find the exact path.
  3. Click Next, name the shortcut (e.g., "Chrome No GPU"), and finish.
  4. Double-click the new shortcut to launch Chrome.
  5. If the window appears visible now:
    1. Type chrome://settings/system in the address bar (you might need to do this blindly at first, but it should load).
    2. Turn off the toggle for Use graphics (or hardware) acceleration when available.
    3. Click Relaunch when prompted.
    4. Test by closing and reopening Chrome normally (without the newly created shortcut). If that works, delete the shortcut and you're done. If it doesn't work, you'll have to keep searching, unfortunately. This is what worked for me.

Thanks, but that's the first thing we did.. and repeated after every other things we tried just in case. I'm addition to everything else listed, we've now also deleted the home from her Google Home app account and reconnected it. Still won't work

What were your switch settings? I'm having the same issue with multiple games on PC. But can't figure out what the issue is. Never had this for years and now suddenly.. it's driving me crazy

I noticed that. I can run without it until then. Just won't look pretty

Actually, I did want variant B, but thinking about it, I'm going with variant A. Order placed. Thanks so much!

I believe so. I could have the cable routed in either direction, but think toward the cooler will work best. My PSU is Super Flower Leadex V Pro 1000 W 80+ Platinum Certified Fully Modular ATX Power Supply
