2. Check to see if your PC can actually  handle FIFA 21

Run a Dxdiag by doing the following:

1. Press Windows


2. Type in dxdiag


3. This will prompt  DxDiag to open, check to see if there’s a button that says Run 64-bit DxDiag
   
   • If it exists, click it
   
   
   • If it doesn’t, DxDiag will just run the 32-bit version by default
   
   


4. Wait for the green bar on the bottom of the window to fully load.


5. When the bar loading is finished, lookup your system’s information

While this may sound obvious enough, many players aren’t aware of FIFA 21’s minimum system requirements.

If that’s the case, head over to EA’s official website and check FIFA 21’s system requirements

If your system requirements are way below FIFA 21’s minimum requirements, the game won’t even load properly.

3. Set the game to the lowest possible settings, and run it again

If the difference between your system’s specs and the minimum requirements isn’t too great, you could try running the game with the lowest possible video specs available.
