I also tried running the game in compatible mode for windows 8. I am on windows 10.

Something that is worth a try, especially with Windows 10 is manually running the following secondary installers as an Administrator (right click, run as admin.)
Origin Games\Need for Speed\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist\vcredist_x86.exe
Origin Games\Need for Speed\__Installer\vc\vc2013\redist\vcredist_x64.exe
Again, let us know how that goes. Thanks.
Installed both, same error. :/
Is there any way you could give me more things to try each time? There is a day or so between answers which makes it a slow process to only try one thing each try.

A few more things to try:
- Connect your GPU and monitor with a HDMI cable
- Reset GPU default settings via nvidia control panel
- Do not overclock your GPU or CPU
- Run the video driver installer again and choose 'clean install'
hey man, reinstall windows. you have a corrupt file according to dxdiag, the program that DIAGNOSES DIRECT X programs lol
There has to be some way to replace the dll file with a fresh one without a friggin clean install of the entire rig.
