Repair the game
Are you Running an up to date Driver?
Close all programs running in the background, like Skype Steam Msi Afterbruner etc...
Are you missing Direct X updates or any other Runtimes Like the Visual C++ Runtimes?
BF1 is an DirectX 11-12 Game only , can you run other DirectX 11 Games? Did you set it to DirectX 12 by accident?
(My) Documents -> Battlefield 1 Open Beta -> settings -> PROFSAVE_Profile

Either open that with something like Notepad++ and find GstRender.Dx12Enabled 1 and change it to 0 or delete the file and start the game.

The CPU seems a bit on the slow side too. If software doesn't fix your problem, I'd look there.

You need origin in order to play it. Let me guess, its pirated?

I have only 2 games on origin , BF3 and Dead Space , both gotten for free. They both worked without an internet connection if I remember correctly. (Not MP on BF3 obviously)

Yes, you can play them in offline mode, but you still need an Origin client in order to play them.
