Need for Speed Unbound running on integrated graphics card instead of RTX GPU
I'm trying to get back into playing the game after a long time, had it installed back when it launched in 2022 and it ran alright, i also had Windows 10 back then and the laptop was stock: Processor AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics (3.20 GHz) Installed RAM 40.0 GB (35.9 GB usable) Graphics card AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics (4 GB) NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3050 Ti Laptop GPU (4 GB) I also added a better Kingston SSD and upgraded to Windows 11. Now after installing the game, it launches and runs windowed (it says fullscreen in settings, but switching back to fullscreen and windowed does nothing), and the game runs on the integrated graphics card instead of the right one. I have no access to settings, to resolution and display settings. I've tried all the solution i've found online, even with ChatGpt, to no avail. No matter what directive or settings I force on the Windows, the game itself or EA app or AMD Software Adrenalin Edition or Nvidia Control Panel, the game still launches like this. If i disable the integrated GPU from Device Manager-Display Adapters-AMD Radeon(TM) Graphics, the display resolution gets messy but the game runs Fullscreen on the right GPU (Nvidia RTX-3050Ti) except it runs on 1 fps, making it unplayable. Turning the Integrated GPU back, it goes right back to windowed and somewhat runs the game on the GPU's capacity which is limited. Also, switching to borderless resolution forces this error and the game crashes: DirectX function ''dxDevice-> CreateHeap(&desc,FB_IID_PPV_ARGS(&heap))'' failed with E_INVALIDARG (''An invalid parameter was passed to the returning function,''), GPU:''AMD Radeon (TM) Graphics'', Driver:23,19,21,13 (23,19,21,13-250707a-417253C-Lenovo). I've tried youtube tutorials and whatever there is to try, re-installing the game 6 times didn't help at all. This is the only game that does this problem, because I also have Need for Speed Heat and it has 0 issues with the GPU. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!Solved53Views0likes2CommentsNFS unbound servers shutting down.

NFS Unbound
I’ve been playing this game since it came out, always reached max level before the new Volume came out. The current Volume ( Volume 9 ) I’ve been max level for a while which is 300. I get on literally TODAY and I’m back a level 1, also my Speed Pass was also reset and it’s showing the items locked. Even though I already have everything unlocked for it. So I don’t know why my level and speed pass was reset. This is for Multiplayer.Solved126Views0likes2CommentsNFS payback not connecting online

Lately on Need for speed Heat I'm having problems connecting to the game's servers and especially to view the crews and go online to get and download the Community Vinyls, in fact it always tells me error inventory synchronization failed and always comes out the same error code 40050000.

I hope we can reach an agreement on this matter, etc. Because as a code developer, I wouldn't want the game or server support to be terminated. Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remasted. I want the servers in this game to never end, etc. Because this game is old, but it's still great, I just want the support to last, etc.Solved100Views1like2CommentsFix for NFS Heat error 40050000
I found a way to fix the error 40050000. It works on PS5, but warning, it might not work for you. If it does, you can play online again. Basically what I did was to sell almost all of my cars and when I tried to reconnect, the game crashed, but then, when it tried to synchronize the inventory after I relaunched it, it just did it normally. I don't know, I had only 17 cars, but... Eh, if it works, it works. Yes, once you are able to synchronize again, you can buy cars with no issue.Solved638Views0likes12Comments- 312Views1like5Comments
Access to NFS Unbound with GFN Now
Hello. I would like to ask if there are any plans to enable Need for Speed Unbound for cloud gaming through GeForce NOW. Many EA titles are already available on the platform, and it would be great to see Need for Speed Unbound supported as well so players can access the game through their existing EA/Steam accounts. Could you please let me know if this is being considered or planned for the future? Thank you for your timeSolved120Views0likes1Comment- 53Views0likes1Comment
