NVidia Optimus (GTX00M) Cannot Run in Fullscreen Mode

So, when I try to run DAI it flashes between what would be fullscreen and a window for several seconds, before settling on a window which isn't even the size that it's supposed to be running on. When...

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

If that does not work, please post your DxDiag as per the instructions below:

1. Press and hold the Windows key and the letter R on your keyboard
2. You will see a Run box in the lower-left corner of your screen
3. Type dxdiag in the text field
4. Click OK
5. If your computer has a 64-bit version of Windows, click the button Run 64-bit DXDIAG (see screenshot below)
6. If your computer has a 32-bit version of Windows, that button will not be available

7. Click the Save All Information button, found on the bottom of the DXDIAG report

8. Save this text file to your Desktop if possible
9. Open the text file, select all the text inside (Ctrl + A) and copy it (Ctrl +C).
10. Go to http://hastebin.com/, paste the contents of your DXDiag inside (Ctrl+V) and click Save on the webpage (Ctrl+S).
11. Copy the link of the page in your post, along with a precise description of your issue.

Here's my DxDiag. Having the same problem as everyone else. When it starts, it flickers between a small window and full screen and then stays at the small window. If I switch to "Windowed Full Screen" it fills the screen but the resolution is not right and the benchmark is lower than what it should be (only around 30 fps). Nvidia GeForce Experience is also unable to Optimize the settings, which I assume is related to this problem. My laptop is an ASUS N550JK with a GTX 850M graphics card.

Thank you. Hope you can patch this soon. I won't be playing the game till then. I would rather wait than have be disappointed by the visual quality.
