same problem laptop lenovo geforce gtx860 with new driver
Found and solved the problem.
Go to display setting, and change to "Windowed Fullscreen", appearantly, EA switched the names fullscreen and windowed fullscreen around.
If i put on fullscreen, i get borders, if i put on windowed fullscreen, i get a genuinine fullscreen mode.

oh hell yeah.
What a mess. That solved my problem.
This is NOT a solution - they did not mix up the names - the full screen window is a borderless window - its not real full screen. The mouse is not locked out, you cannot lower the resolution below the desktop setting, etc.
I have this same problem on one of two IDENTICAL Lenovo laptops (one for work, one for home). One works fine (the work one sadly), the other refused to run full screen correctly. I have compared settings and details on both - I cannot find a difference that would cause one to function normally and the other to not. Ugh.

I strongly doubt this, I get a fair performance boost when running in fullscreen mode and a drop when running in "windowed fullscreen".
EA/Bioware, thank you for formally looking into addressing this issue. Here is my dxdiag:

When selecting fullscreen, the game is plainly in windowed mode.

Wow... seriously can't believe that is the issue... Well it worked for me
