Intel driver and keyboard issue

I saw other posts with those issues but unfortunately nothing seems to work. The 2 issues are:

1.Issue regarding the Intel driver, which apparently is older than necessary even though I downloaded the beta that was listed on one another post regarding Need for Speed.

2.The moment I start the game and get pass the Intel error, when it prompts me hit either SPACE or L, nothing happens. I use a laptop, so the only thing that's connected to the UBS ports is the mouse and that's it. 

I added a dxdiag file.. Thank you in advance

    Not more than 10 minutes after, I wrote the post, I managed to fix both issues. If anyone is using a laptop and has switchable graphic cards, and also has the latest driver installed( mine is AMD Radeon M200x series with AMD Crimson 16.4.1 installed), right click on desktop->radeon settings->Preferences->Radeon Additional settings(it will take a couple of seconds to load)->Switchable graphics global settings->Switchable graphics application settings-> set Need for Speed to High Performance. This will bypass the Intel driver update error and the keyboard issue when starting the game.
