Hi maniac. I have seen posts on other websites that say running bad company 2 in administrator mode is the way to go. Is that true? Also saw people suggesting running the game in different compatibilty modes. I have Win7 x64. Should I just leave it set to windows 7 or have you heard of the game running better set to another option? Thanks!
I have updated my post to show the correct way to Launch BFBC2 -with the proper Admin permissions-  *last section "Other Stuff" http://forums.evga.com/fb.ashx?m=1106883

Hi again maniac. Thanks for the updated info. And I have good news, I returned to stability last night. Like I said, I was crashing again badly for a couple of nights after being just fine after following your advice a week ago. So last night out of curiosity I went into the nvcp and checked my settings and found that some of the settings you told me to set were changed! I was like ****? So I changed them back and saved them and ran the game in admin mode and had not one issue. So, I don't know how my settings got changed since I haven't updated drivers or knowingly changed anything myself. But anyway, when everything is set the way you suggested I have not had one problem with the game. I will keep an eye on my nvcp in the future if problems arise since it happened once. Thanks for all the help again.

Maniacvvv,
I've been playing for a couple of weeks now without any issues; until about two days ago.
I tried switching to single-display mode (play on one monitor) and changed the NVidia settings to "Maximize 3D Performance" and started having major issues (black screens and even benchmarks were crashing). This was of course at OC'd settings.
I changed back to Surround and everything was fine but then today, I started getting CTD while playing BC2. It usually happens when I press "Tab" to check the scoreboard (I have a habit of doing it every time I am about to respawn) and it just hangs for a couple of seconds and then CTD.
All the settings in the NVCP are according to your guide for this particular game. My global settings are more or less Default except for "Multiple Display Performance Mode", "Prefer Maximum Performance", and "High Quality".
Should I change the global settings to Multisample for AA and put Texture Filtering back to "Quality"? I changed them accordingly for BC2 (under Program Settings in NVCP).
Also, I just got FEAR 3 and noticed that at 8100x1600 and every thing on Very High, the three GPUs are only being used at about 40-50% and the FPS is around 30FPS which is pathetic. Why is the GPU usage so low?
More importantly though, I want BC2 to work flawlessly. Btw, the CTD are happening even at stock clocks for the GPU (772MHz).

Texture filtering= high quality Should NOT be used. What that basicly does is turn OFF -all- of the very best features of your videocard (and overides some settings default to OFF -and- disables some game engine features), and makes your videocard work much harder by doing things with brute force. As I stated in my guide, do NOT use the high quality setting. -->For games, using High Quality should never be used. It can make games look worse and cause issues. *As for your Videocard overclock, try a small bump to the voltage **do not forget, at the first sign of issues or problems.. check the BFBC2 settings file, it may have reset...

I question. What is the difference between csaa and msaa?
CSAA stands for "Coverage sample" and MSAA stands for "Multi sample" Here is a good article about the different modes http://www.tweakguides.com/Graphics_11.html http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spatial_anti-aliasing http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multisample_anti-aliasing http://www.nhancer.com/?dat=d_AA Generally, CSAA provides better results than MSAA, but at AA levels above x8 it becomes very hard to really see the differances, it becomes more of a math thing and videocard memory limits/usage/fps... If you have the hardware, and are still showing free videocard memory with 95%+ GPU use... I suggest you play around with the different AA settings and see what works best for you Just remember, changing AA settings will result in resetting BLOOM in the BFBC2 folder -and- can affect what features and settings are present in the NVCP... Have fun and see what your hardware will do, and when you cant see any differences anymore

By so far Maniac, this really helped alot by so far. Really the sluggerish game play changed in smooth gameplay and the graphics moving much faster because the game and the drivers working now together.
If you want i will copy past your guide and make a topic of it on bfbc2 forum.. With your name signed..

That's the best guide i've seen so far Maniac. Two thumbs up ! Three, if i had another lol :P
It significantly affected the gameplay, for the better.
However, this issue still resolves no matter what i do.
First of all i would post up my spec.
Win 7 Home Premium 64bit (All updated)
i7 2600k (Stock clocks, 1.3v)
Asus Maximus IV Extreme
16GB 1600 DDR3 Kingston Hyper X (Blue Color) (Set to run 1600mhz, 1.6500v)
Gigabyte GTX590 (Stock clocks)
Sound Blaster X-fi Titanium Professional Audio
2TB WD Caviar Green
Corsair HX1000W
I have followed your recommendations to the letter, But it was running fine for a few days, now the WSOD returns. I have not changed anything at all.
Well it is kind of weird because the first time i launch the game within minutes sometimes immediately it WSODs, sometimes Black Screen then WSOD. Most of the time i am able to ALT+TAB and shut down the game from the Task Manager.
After that, i run BFBC2 again and it doesn't crash at all. No WSOD no nothing. Except a little FPS drop and stuttering a little bit but otherwise its running well. I'm running out of ideas as i can't figure out why does it crash every first time i fire up BFBC2. It would run as if nothing is wrong.

Hmm, thats a weird one for sure... Does it crash when you "launch", "during login or server selection" or "when you enter a game"? Oh, and welcome to the EVGA fourms bro EDIT: if its running fine after the crash, then that would appear to be a loading issue. I would suggest a defrag and see if that helps.

My apologies - i missed out that one.
It crashes after i enter a game. Also i noticed fan would go idle for a while during the WSOD and afterwards runs at the appropriate speed for the temperature. Driver 270.61, evga precision 2.0.3 just for manual fan control
Edit : Thanks for the welcome, i love these forums as its much much more useful than most other forums... although im not using EVGA product, i would, if it is sold here where i live. Malaysia

Try rebooting before playing -or- going into TaskManager and looking for Adobe flash player (still open) after the browser has been closed. I would defrag, and check for Adobe being active.. or reboot before starting BFBC2 I'm just shooting in the dark here, but its worth trying bro *and dont worry about having EVGA products, the people on these fourms do not care what hardware you are running. -->We are ALL "users" first, EVGA fanboys second

I checked my NVCP settings and the Texture Filtering Quality is set to Quality so I know that's fine. I actually ended up trying the new 275.50 Beta drivers and then went back to the 275.33 WHQL today. I also tested playing the game with a single monitor (Single Display Performance Mode and used "Maximize 3D Performance" in NVCP) and it played flawlessly; no CTD etc. The moment I switched to "Multiple Display Performance Mode" and basically "Surround" mode, I got a CTD after about 30 minutes of playing. I should note that I played BC2: Vietnam for about 2 hours and there were NO CTD etc. Only when I play BC2 vanilla, the CTD happens; it hangs for a couple of seconds and then crashes to the desktop (CTD). I also checked the settings.ini file and there were no changes made (bloom = false and FoV = 45 for Surround). HELP!

--> FOV=45? Here is a BFBC2 FOV calculator to help you with deciding what to use http://www.rjdown.co.uk/projects/bfbc2/fovcalculator.php The number I get for your 8100x1600 is FOV=23 *no wonder your crashing

http://www.rjdown.co.uk/projects/bfbc2/fovcalculator.php
The number I get for your 8100x1600 is FOV=23 *no wonder your crashing
I know the calculated FoV is 23 but the lowest the settings will go to is 30 (it resets to that if you try any number lower). 30 is WAY TOO weird for me to play so I set it at 45. You have to remember, with more screen space, the LOWER your FoV has to be in order to NOT make things appear stretched. Even at the default 55, things look stretched on the right and left screens. So 45 is a good balance. I don't think that's causing the issues. I can play Vietnam or any other game for hours without issues. It's some other setting or whatever causing the conflict. Why do you think the FoV setting is causing the CTDs?

The FOV setting in BFBC2 is NOT like other games. It is horizontal FOV based, thats why the numbers are weird.
Since I do not run a surround setup, I cannot speak about the subject with first hand information. Sorry bro, was just a guess...

Anyone having the same problems as i do ? My last resort is RMA the GTX 590 but to prove its not working is very difficult as 3DMark tests and also Furmark, and other games it doesn't crash.
Or.. should i just reformat my hard drive, and just install the necessary stuffs, without the unnecessary programs ?
Helppp :(

If 3Dmark and Furmark are running fine.. and only BFBC2 is crashing, then the card itself is fine. *A RMA wont fix something thats not broken. Please post in the 500 series fourms, with your complete system specs and any overclocks and lets see whats going on. Most often what you describe is because BFBC2 is "sensitive" to system overclocks.. often adding a small amount of voltage to the CPU will help in such cases... Please make a post

Yea, I'm playing with the FoV at 40 now and it looks good. However, the CTD are still happening. I even tried changing the "priority" in Task Manager (for the game) to "High" but that didn't help; still CTD'd after about 30 minutes. This is driving me nuts. I can play any other game without any issues but vanilla BC2 keeps CTD'ing. Any other suggestions?

In such cases, it is a good idea to look at any overclocks on the system as BFBC2 can be -very- sensitive. If you have your CPU OC'd try adding a small ammount of voltage or back it down 15%... if your RAM is highly overclocked, try backing in down some... For GPU overclocks, try dropping 50mz... If nothing is OC'd or that doesnt work, I would suggest dropping the AA levels by half. IE x32x MSAA to x16 or if at x16 dropping to x8 Good luck and keep at it bro

Hey maniacvvv, just a question. if in NVCP Settings, under program settings for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 (bfbc2game.exe) if i restore the settings the multi-gpu rendering mode shows "Nvidia Recommended (Custom)". If i select use Global Settings it just shows "Nvidia Recommended" would it make a difference ?

No difference, the profile setting and Nvidia recommended in the global settings tab, are the same thing.  *that should NOT be adjusted or changed for BFBC2

Remember, if your going to do a complete OS reinstall.. Install the OS and MB/chipset drivers, then fully update at Windows update (no optional, driver or hardware updates). Then follow my guide for a fresh "clean" NV driver install and a Direct X update. Then install (and update) BFBC2---> and test, before you install other devices, programs or games. This will help you identify what might be causing your issues
