DirectX Error On Game Launch

For the past day, I have not been able to run NFS Heat. Right after the window comes up for the game, I get a DirectX Error. I spent 2 hours last night trying everything I could to get this issue fixed including: Re-installing the game, re installing my nvidia drivers, changing the compatibility settings, clean booting and a few other things and nothing worked. The game worked 2 days ago when I first installed it as well.

  • @CommandoCarbon Try to clean the Directx shadercache from your harddrive. Right click on your bootdrive > propperties > disk cleanup > and clean the directx shadercache. Hope it helps. Or else try to use DDU remove the drivers and install manually back. Hope you aren't on windows 8 cause this game is also windows 10 only for some weird reason.
