Re: NFS Unbound crashes after clicking play (Device Hung DirectX)

AMD driver 24.6.1: - Solved.

I bought the game on sale last week and I had this problem. I have many games and only NFS Unbound was crashing at startup DirectX error.

After 3 days , I found out, I tried everything you can imagine to solve it.

My problem was ANTI-LAG enabled on AMD Software Adrenalin,disable it, game runs perfectly,

On Adrenalin, search Games, Need for Speed Unbound, disable anti-lag. You can enable "Fluid Motion" (it increases fps), and Image Sharppening.

My system:

Asus tuf gaming x670 e-plus wifi, 7800x3D , 32gb, Rx 6800.

I posted this on youtube and reported to AMD support.

    I'm using the same driver, anti lag is on. I did not encounter any problems on either PC. One is RX 6600 and the other is RX 6900 XT.

    Wow thank you, I just turned of anti lag and it worked. I have a 6700XT running 1440p. Its late 2024 and this issue still exists.
