@UnholyFroggod it the same issue disabling cores also fixes it but this way you dont get a performance hit in my opinion this is better no messing with the bios and you get to keep using all cores its also easier to do. Also it could have to do with how apex tells windows to use the microphone on a 6 core cpu that could be causing the issue

@BogutUndersawthank you for this man, my game is completely playable now on 6 cores and I have a better performance already (it was working before with the the BIOS 4 cores solution). Unfortunately it seems to crash -with no error- more often than with the 4 cores. Anyway, amazing finding, let's hope they fix this for good soon. SPECS: FX-6350, Radeon R7 360, 8GB ram
EDIT: NVM, "Bad_Module" errors started appearing again, going back to 4 cores but will test this Audio fix as well.

I found an easier workaround, instead of doing that long irritating thing with services. We're better off going to the games settings and turn off the microphone completely but keeping the voice chat enabled so we can hear other players.
Here's what you do:
1. Go to C:\Users\*yournamehere*\Saved Games\Respawn\Apex\local
2. Open settings.cfg
3. Go to the bottom of that document and make sure you have as follows
sv_voiceenable "1"
TalkIsStream "0"
voice_forcemicrecord "0"
voice_mixer_boost "0"
voice_mixer_mute "0"
voice_mixer_volume "1.0"
voice_modenable "0"
voice_scale "0"
voice_vox "0"
4. Save the file and close it.
5. Right-click the same file and go to properties. Tick "Read-only" in the pop-up window and apply the changes.
This only helps with disconnects and game freezes. The game will crash from time to time, but not as common as it occurs without doing the workaround. I can play around 7 games without crashing me mid-game.

if you think that the process is long and irritating then i would suggest creating a bat file using the following
sc stop Audiosrv
sc stop AudioEndpointBuilder
sc start AudioEndpointBuilder
sc start Audiosrv
and setting it to run as administrator then just click the bat file when you start the game. The process you mentioned will work but you will no longer be able to adjust in game settings.

@QueuekumbR there are multiple issues causing the game to crash this helps with most of them

@snoggy1234 @Shumcheq you can alternatively disable you microphone or follow @MMC_Mynio guide to do it in the game files but if you do you wont be able to adjust in game settings.
