Need for Speed Racing Games

dashadowpl : well I knew because the game screwed something in my Windows and affected also another game I had installed: RACE DRIVER GRID which was suffering from artifacts aswell ... but when I've fixed it, GRID was running ok so I've figured NFS should too. Anyway, I've fixed the loading too (did a full reinstall of NFS Shift) but now I have ANOTHER problem ... every now and then black and blue squares appear on my screen, but they appear to be in the 3D scenery, and I can even tell which are close and which are far ... DAMN IT

damn on newest forcewars the same situation ( 190 forcewars )

some races are ok , some races are with this strange artifacts ( black lines, or freezes with changing colors to for example yellow sky , or red , black points , black short lines )


;/////83 C is temp of card while i am in game


like i say..other games and marks are without artifacts;;/// why? SHIFT?

hi. i have the same problem on my asus k40ab laptop with ATI radeon hd4570 graphic card. there are many artifacts which show up on the screen. i tried all possible graphic settings in the game but to no success. i have a windows vista 32bit version. is there a possibility that the game will work with windows 7 or will ea ever come up with a fix for this problem???? has any1 found a solution to this. i need some1's help.

Same issue..

runnig on a new rig with 4770 card, tested with both new and original ati drivers.
Rig: phenom2 - 64bit x4 940, 4gig ram, vista pro 64, ...

experiencing triangular graphic flashes ingame. really REALLY frustrating
Using maybee 5 new games and this is the only one showing these bugs.

i may have found a little workaround !

it may sound weird but it worked for me and one of my friends !


set the same screen resolution in NFS:SHIFT as for your windows (sorry for my english)

ex.

windows - 1440*900 ---- NFS:S - 1280 * 720 = BAD (artifact)

windows - 1440*900 ---- NFS:S - 1440 * 900 = GOOD (no more artifacts)

it did work for me and one of my friend , i found that a little weird

can someone else try it and give me feedback !!

BTW: the problem is there on ati AND nvidia !!!

I tried this and no matter what even at 1440X900 just like my windows resolution it does this god damn EA never again will I pay for a nfs game never!

this is exactly my problem, I am using an i7 processor, vista64 and Radeon HD 4890.

i tried the 1440-900 and no luck also, nice try but

Replaced my Radeon4890HD (funny colors in sky) with a NvidiaGTX295 and the game now works 100%
