@Marcel1155, Welcome to HP Support Community,

 

Thank you for posting your query; I’m here to help by guiding you through steps to resolve this issue

 

I'm sorry to hear you're having trouble with your graphics initialization while trying to play League of Legends. This issue might be related to your graphic drivers or your current hardware configuration. Here are a few troubleshooting steps you can try:

Update Graphics Drivers: Ensure that your graphics card drivers are up to date. If you have an HP device, you can use the HP Support Assistant or visit the HP Drivers and Software page to get the latest drivers for your model.

Check for Windows Updates: Make sure your Windows operating system is up to date, as updates often contain important security and functionality fixes.

Check Device Manager: Open Device Manager to see if your graphics card is listed correctly. Right-click on the Start menu and select Device Manager, then look under Display Adapters.

Reinstall League of Legends: There might be an issue with the game's installation. Try uninstalling and then reinstalling the game.

Change Graphics Settings: Lowering your graphics settings in the game might help if your graphics hardware is having trouble.

DirectX Update: Make sure you have the latest version of DirectX installed, as League of Legends requires it for proper operation.

 

I hope this helps.

Please feel free to reply here if you have any questions or if you need further clarification on any of the steps. 

 

Take care and have a good day.
