Unravel crashes on launch
Sadly Unravel crashes almost every time I launch it. I don't have K-Lite Codec on my Laptop but do have CCCP & VLC installed. After pressing PLAY it appears that my screen is switching to an inferior...
@Raygun113 Can you try the following steps to see if they help
1. Right Click on Desktop
2. Select nVidia Control Panel
3. In left panel select "Manage 3D Settings"
4. In right panel select Global Tab
5. Under "Preferred Graphics Processor" select "Auto-Select" and hit APPLY button
Now try again and see if it properly selects correct GPU. If not
6. Repeat steps 1 thru 3 above
7. In right panel select "Program Settings" tab
8. Under section 1., check the box for "only programs on this computer"
9. then hit the "Add" button and find the program that you want to run on nVidia card
10 Go down to section 2. and select nVidia processor
@Raygun113 Are you playing on an admin account?
Sorry @EA_Darko for butting in this conversation again 🙂 but only one (last) idea from me:
@Raygun113Does this little Nvidia icon (GPU activity monitor) show activity when you try to start Unravel and you ALT-Tab back to Windows Desktop (Unravel still in background),
like this?

In my case that was giving me the hint to check for the driver settings.
Greetings
Only wanted to share my experiences. From now on I'll leave it to you EA professionals. 😉
[ My System: Acer Notebook with Intel Core i7, Geforce GTX 860M, Windows 10 64 bit ... Unravel runs flawlessly. ]
Hi EA & MAD,
I appreciate the input I'm receiving from both of you! Unravel looks like a great game that my wife & I are hoping to play some Friday night.
To answer both your questions:
1) I'm not sure how to run the game in Admin mode? Does this mean I join Origin again in a different way or access it in some other manner?
2) The tiny green NVidia Icon did not appear to flicker or change color when I Alt-Tabbed back to it.
Hmm...the main difference I see between our systems is different video cards. Could there be an issue with my version?
Thanks again!
