@DYNTITAN I have moved it this thread to PvZ2 tech issues section, as I want someone to confirm what I remember (plus, that's where it should be). Anyway, here goes.

 

From what I understand, you have an Intel GPU. If that's the only GPU you have, then you won't be able to run the game - the card is too weak. However, if you have another graphics card, then it means that the game selected a wrong one. If that's the case, then what's your other GPU? If it's a Nvidia product, go to Nvidia Control Panel, select "Manage 3D settings" from the menu and select the Nvidia GPU in "Preferred Graphics Processor" part.

 

Alternatively, you can just right-click on the game file (I think it's called PvZGW2.exe) in folder with GW2 files (which is in Origin Games folder), choose "Run with graphics processor" and select your GPU.

I was using this advice

 

"If it's a Nvidia product, go to Nvidia Control Panel, select "Manage 3D settings" from the menu and select the Nvidia GPU in "Preferred Graphics Processor" part"

 

Thanks for your fast and great support
