Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2010 Solution / Fix for Some Errors: Crash to Desktop, Black Screen, Freeze, Etc

This is some information that I got through the internet. I want to write it here so you can know. As information, this is just information, hopefully will be able to provide the best solution to all of you who are currently experiencing many problems with Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2010. And it's not my experience, but only information I get through a few sites on the Internet.

First, this is the solution for those of you experiencing crashes to the desktop (got a crash to desktop).
Start the game and open the task manager. And then, set the affinity to only two cores. Yes, the game will not work with quadcores, except you switch to two cores. Hope, EA will fix this.

Black screen problem. The solution?
Run the game and then set affinity to 0 and 1 cpu's in task manager.

The game is in RUSSIAN. This is the solution:
cmd> regedit> ctrl+f> type need for speed > change (locale) from "ru" to "en" without the " "

If the game crash / freeze or fails to load, maybe some of the solutions below can help.
For those of you with ATI Radeon cards: try updating to catalyst 10.10e hotfix and to those whose audio drivers are written by Realtek, update to the latest version of their audio software (Try Googling an alternative to their TW homepage). Usually the main cause of the crack not working (i.e. crashes to desktop, program fails to load) is due to an AV/Anti-Spyware type program's (i.e. AVG, Norton, NOD32) "Realtime Monitoring" feature. As information, this feature is labeled "Resident Shield" for AVG.

Disable the real-time protection feature when installing the game and/or crack. (If you do re-enable the real-time protection feature at some point down the road, if you happen to run a full scan it will then find that crack as a computer virus again and remove it).

(Make sure you have the newest DirectX, .Net Framework, the basics etc).

Did you experience when run the game it says "Connecting to Autolog" yet nothing happens, just black screen with this rotating icon?
Maybe this can give you the best solution:
1. Disconnect From internet

2. Try disabling your Antivirus / Firewall

3. Launch the game with administrator rights and with Windows Vista (Service Pack 1) compatibility.

If some of the solutions above is still not able to provide the best results, hopefully someone can provide a solution through the comment box below. And maybe some of the above solution works well for some users, meanwhile, some other users are still having problems. The best solution is to take frequent visit to EA forum, because there may be some other solution that is more up to date (http://forum.ea.com/eaforum/forums/show/3896.page).
