Crashes when i try to move

[i_need_rope_B]

I havent played bf3 much, in fact i just downloaded it a couple of days ago. I load into servers just fine, i can choose spawn points and manage loadout, however when i spawn in, i cant move my crosshair and if a press a button on my keyboard the game closes without any error messages or anything.

I've already tried to delete various settings profiles in documents. I've also tried running the game while i had it set to windows 7 special compatibility (i'm on windows 10 btw), I have also tried reparing it through origin and reinstalled it all together.

I've looked at a lot of threads without any luck

pls help i just wanna play game

Hello,

If you use Discord's overlay disable it, it's working for me

@i_need_rope_BHi, can you try a Clean Boot, and see if anything changes?

If this has no effect, can you try checking your reliability monitor to see is a crash report generated there?

Thank you.

Correct, disabling Discord overlay solved my problem!
