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.

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.

Hi,As suggested by others, first try disabling any third-party programs that have Visual Overlays. Any program that tries to place a filter, picture, or Graphical User Interface on top of a running program can potentially cause issues for Origin and Origin games, which similarly uses an In-Game Overlay feature. Make sure these types of programs are closed before running Origin or your games.-
- Popular applications with Overlay features include: X-Fire, Windows Blinds, Ventrilo, Teamspeak, Teamviewer
