BATTLEFIELD 5 infinite black screen when starting game (PC)

[icewollowcomee21]

Hi, I just got BF5 and I launched it just to be stuck at a black screen for 10 minutes. I reinstalled it and did all the "fixes" I could find. Please help.

Hey, @icewollowcomee21 can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with Battlefield V and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have? 

Let me know if this works or not for you.

You need to find where you installed Origin and Battlefield V and look for the exe that starts the program. Right click the exe and click properties, click combability tab and run as Admin is below. @icewollowcomee21
