"PR:BF2 has closed, cleaning up files" after black screen on startup

[Yaso]

Ok so this is my first time trying PR so bare with me -

I've seen some similar threads online that are either inconclusive or end up landing beyond my current situation or ability.

I installed PR through the download assistant and when I press play on the launcher I get a black screen for a few seconds followed by "PR:BF2 has closed, cleaning up files" and it closes.

I've deleted the folder in Documents and if I use windowed mode, I get this beauty

I run on Windows 10 and my laptop fits all the recommended specs

I have DX 12, .NET framework 4.5, and I have C++ all downloaded or already on my laptop, I don't think its my antivirus because usually it would spike my disk usage or CPU usage if it overreacts to something but it doesn't.

I've seen some threads say I need DX June 2010 but I've also seen that it should run fine with newer versions and also I'm pretty sure I can't download an older version of DX 9 if I have the newest version, can I?

Help

If you didn't see "Run windowed and get the error message" on the forums you didn't search enough.

I ran it on windowed mode and got the same error message as most: "debug assertion failed..."

I tried changing resolution in the profile folders as well and that didn't work either...

Debug assertion failed!

EDIT: I just realised it didn't post the image of the error message on the original post, idk but yeah. sorry bout that.

Either:
1. Put 1920x1080 in custom resolution in the launcher
2. Add 800x600 as a valid resolution in your GPU drivers.

I tried the custom resolution in the launcher and editing the video.con & launcher.con files to no avail. Does it really harm my processor/system to add a custom resolution to my GPU? It gives me a warning message on the Intel graphics control panel when I attempt to add a custom resolution and I'm trying not to end up frying my computer over this.
