There is a desire to drive in your favorite game, but it does not start? Unfortunately, many gamers have encountered a problem when NFS Carbon crashes, does not start, or does not install at all. How to solve this problem?
Technical problems
To begin with, I want to note that the game was released 12 years ago. And there are no problems that could not be solved on modern computer devices. The first thing to check if NFS Carbon crashes is to meet the minimum system requirements of the game. There is no need to overload the "iron" and set impossible tasks. The requirements for the game are as follows:
- RAM: 256 MB.
- Windows 2000 | XP.
- 6 GB of free disk space.
- 1.4 GHz - processor.
- 64 Mb - video.
- The presence of DirectX 9.0.
If your PC device meets these system requirements, you can begin to check the following features.
You need to make sure that the appropriate software is installed and the video card drivers are updated.
If the manufacturer of the video card is unknown, it can be defined in the "Control Panel" menu. The sequence is as follows:
- "Computer Settings";
- "Control Panel";
- "Device Manager".
Next, in the list of available devices, open the "Video Adapters" tab and find out the necessary information.
If the brand is known in advance, you can go to the official website of the manufacturer and install the latest version of the drivers. It is important to remember that installing unlicensed software may not solve the problem.
Another option, why NFS Carbon crashes at startup, may be an incorrect version of DirectX. The current program can be downloaded from the official Microsoft website.
When you first start, do not immediately set the maximum requirements. It is possible that the system will reject them even with the most powerful computer hardware.
Installation issues
A possible option, why NFS Carbon crashes, may be the incorrect installation of the game.
If the game was installed via the Repack downloaded on the Internet, an error may occur due to a malfunction of the installation file. It is necessary to exclude any errors that form during installation. Solution: download another version of the game or get a licensed version.
In case of problems during installation from the official disk, a failure may occur due to the antivirus blocking the program. Only temporary shutdown will help here.
The game must be installed in a folder whose path does not contain Cyrillic characters. If there are any in the name of one of the folders, they must be replaced.
Compatibility issues
In the event that all the above conditions are met, but NFS Carbon crashes anyway, you can try to run it as an administrator. If the account does not have the necessary rights, a similar launch function will appear when left-clicking on the game’s shortcut.
The problem with the compatibility of the operating system is also quite common. In most cases, NFS Carbon crashes to Windows 10. How to solve this problem?
- Right-click on the game’s shortcut.
- "Fix compatibility issues."
3. "Check the program."
4. "OK."
Next, the game should start automatically. If it reappears, the procedure will need to be repeated.
Other problems
Sometimes NFS Carbon crashes for no apparent reason. There is a game, the race is in full swing, and now before your eyes the desktop. In most cases, this is caused by a pattern that occurs in the gameplay itself. For example, a car crashes into the same fence. Continuing the passage of the game with this development is possible only by avoiding problem areas.
If, on departure, any error pops up, the first thing you need to do is write it down and send a report to the support service. Sometimes developers deliberately provoke a game for malfunctions, thereby testing program bugs for all kinds of obstacles.
The last problem described in this article can be attributed to the technical. Often the picture just freezes, and the system shows that the program is running. In this case, it is unlikely to continue the game. It is possible that the video card overheated. Again, a similar error at the same place in the game process will not happen again, but this is a signal to replace a weak processor or video card.
If you have problems with the departure of the games, you should not blame the developers. In 99% of cases, the error is resolved without outside interference.
