BF4 crash when clicking options (post Jan 30 patch)

[tiNy-Crackbaby]

Since the Januari 30th patch and the Mantle AMD driver update I've been getting a CTD every time I click options in my esc menu. This makes me unable to change any setting, including changing my game renderer to Mantle.

I've tried turning off Eyefinity, renaming my PROFSAVE_Profile to force new settings, deleting my user.cfg config file, repairing game, reinstalling game all to no avail. Here follows the eror. I wanted to post my DXDiag too but apperently you guys decided therse posts needed to be below 20k characters. Instead, below is my system config.

I have the excact same issue, whenever i click the options i get game crash. Im also running with hd 7970 ghz edition, downloaded the 14.1 beta catalyst drivers. Annoying when i can't change anything because of this, and my game sounds were left very high up, so i can't change those either

Same problem here! Cant go into Options otherwise the game hangs up completely. I have downgraded to the 13.12 driver, because first i thought it was die new 14.1 beta. It isn't.

My config is an i7 2600k and a r9 280x with 16 gb ram. I also have a second monitor runing on the integrated gpu, but its usually not running when i play. I read somewhere, that it might help to deactivate the second gpu in my bios, but that is not an option! I cant always go back to bios, deactivate and activate it back after i played the game.

Plz fix it. It was no problem with older builds.

Origin -> Game Properties -> Launch x86 works for me as a temporary fix
