Issues unresolved

'Cannot initialise graphics' Error

An error whereby the message 'Cannot initialise graphics. DirectX 10 or 11 Support required' is displayed upon startup.
This may be due to your graphics card not supporting DirectX 10/11.[1]
Windows Vista users experiencing the problem using DirectX 10+ compatible graphics cards may find the Microsoft KB971512 hotfix resolves the issue.
In addition it is important all Service Packs are installed, especially SP2.
This fix doesn't resolve the issue for everyone.[2]

Corrupt Save Game

Although officially resolved with the release of developer patch 12,[3] a number of users are still reporting issues with save game corruption.
Some have reported that disabling Steam Cloud can help.
Instructions

DirectX Version Error

Many users still report issues with the DirectX version installed by Steam upon download.[4]
Unfortunately, there is no known fix to this issue.
This can make the game unplayable for some, especially those running the game on a laptop. It is therefore recommended that the demo version is first installed to ensure that the game functions correctly on the user's laptop.

Issues fixed

Crash to Desktop ('nvlddmkm' stops responding)

A number of users have reported an issue whereby the game crashes a few minutes in, along with the display driver. The message 'nvlddmkm has stopped responding' is displayed.[5]
This can be resolved by simply enabling Vsync in the game's options menu.

Steam 'Error 41'

The game crashes to desktop mid-race and Steam displays an 'error 41' window.
Despite numerous patches, the error still persists for many.
For laptop users, the error often results from an incompatibility with multi-GPU setups such as those using NVIDIA Optimus or ATI Hybrid Graphics.[6]
For desktop users, the error is usually related to the Steam Cloud or multisampling.[7]
Although there is no fix that works for everyone, there are a number of suggested fixes that users can try.
Important: Before trying any of the following fixes, your first port of call should be visiting your GPU manufacturer's website (NVIDIA/AMD) and downloading the latest drivers for your graphics card from them. This can sometimes resolve the issue. Drivers downloaded through Windows Update are often outdated and are not posted as frequently.

As a last resort, the following fix can be applied.
Unfortunately, the fix often results in vehicles having green reflections, but it resolves the issue for many.[8]
