If the screen goes black 5-10 seconds after the EA logo, the GPU driver is timing out.

If your game goes black and then eventually crashes your video driver, it might be a Windows feature called "Timeout Detection and Recovery" (TDR). Windows thinks your GPU is frozen and resets it, causing the black screen.

Sometimes your save file is telling the game to load a car or a location that doesn't exist, resulting in a black screen after the menu.
