I recently purchased Mass Effect 2 and the DLC bundle on Origin. When I started up the game I got a message saying "Your hardware appears to be unsupported. The game will continue but you may experience reduced performance or instability." I went ahead and started the game but there wasn't any audio. I checked the volume mixer on my laptop and it shows audio is on for the game but I'm getting no sound when I try and play. The opening cutscene of the game was oddly sped up too. I've tried running the game as an administrator, and uninstalling and reinstalling the game but nothing works.
I have a MSI laptop with Windows 10. The processor is Intel(R) Core (TM) i7-6700HQ CPU @ 2.60GHz. I also have nvidia GTX960M.
I'm not super tech savvy so I've run out of ideas on how to fix the issue. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Make sure that your games run on the NVIDIA GPU and not on the Intel GPU.
If that works the "Your hardware appears to be unsupported" notification should be gone.
If Audio is still not there, just let us know.

@holger1405 I made sure that my games are running on NVIDIA GPU. I went to the NVIDIA control panel and made sure ME2 is running on NVIDIA GPU. Still no audio though.
