Hey @cr33p_777 can you try a clean boot to see if any programs are messing with Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered and turn off any overlay programs, such as Discord or Nvidia experience.

Can you add a Dxdiag so we can see what hardware and drivers you have?

Let me know if this works or not for you. 🙂

Same issue here I fancied a quick game today and nothing, won't launch, is this really not compatible with Windows 11? It's the first modern game I've heard that won't work on Win 11?

~~Edit - Nevermind, it was Discord, disabling Discord in-game overlay fixed things for me.~~

So I decided to play again tonight, turned off Discord, launched the game...black screen then instant crash to desktop.

Started disabling my apps one by one, suddenly, after Disabling DisplayFusion, the game launched.

I quit the game, re-enabled DisplayFusion and guess what, the game still launched.

So, until anyone can prove any different I'm putting this down to some issue with the games DRM, EA Desktop being screwy or similar, as I can't figure it can be anything else.

Once again, legitimate customers get the raw deal it seems.
