hey gentlemen!

 

since a few days i get this message every time i load a new bf3 game:

 

---------------------------

DirectX Error

---------------------------

DirectX function "renderer->m_swapChain->ResizeBuffers( renderer->m_settings->getTripleBufferingEnable() ? 3 : 2, renderer->m_screenInfo.windowWidth, renderer->m_screenInfo.windowHeight, DXGI_FORMAT_R8G8B8A8_UNORM, DXGI_SWAP_CHAIN_FLAG_ALLOW_MODE_SWITCH)" failed with DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL: The application has made an erroneous API call that it had enough information to avoid. This error is intended to denote that the application should be altered to avoid the error. Use of the debug version of the DXGI.DLL will provide run-time debug output with further information.. GPU: "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 570", Driver: 31422

---------------------------

Definitely go to the NVidia site and update your drivers....for my video cards (570/590) they just came out with new drivers very recently...also they have new software that will analyze your games and recommend settings. I was having graphic crashes but since I updated my drivers and ran their software no further problems.

This exact same thing has been happening to me for quite awhile. I've tried EVERYTHING you can think of to try and fix it including having an entire new computer but still errors.

Have you tried manually installing Direct X from the Microsoft website?

I'll try the Xfire trick.. and I haven't installed Direct X manually. I will do that. Thank you General.

See above...update your drivers (which is what worked for me..nvidia has new drivers out) and turn off xfire. Hopefully that will fix you're problem as well.

This is still not fixed for me. Tried to install direct x manually, but that didn't work. and also updated my GC's driver, but the problem persists. :( So basically I'm stuck till BF4 comes out. because it will take ages for me to reinstall and download all updates of BF3.

Try running a repair install of BF3 from the Origin Launcher, if you haven't tried already. I had a similar issue with the latest beta drivers and doing just that solved the problem.

I had this issue for ages and the ONLY thing that fixed it was disabling Xfire for bf3 and disabling any other programs that give you an in-game overlay. Previous to that i had tried everything from fresh install to installing DX and drivers and none off that worked.
