Well, it's now late July 30th and this still isn't fixed. I have been online with Origin help for an hour yet again tonight - that's every night for a fortnight..........
I too have done all the 'troubleshooting steps' - tedious uninstalling, re-installing, ports, admin accounts...blah blah blah.
I thought, that maybe to lighten the frustration, we'd like a list of the excuses I have been given so far:
1. Yes, we are aware of it, it'll be fixed in the next update
2. I don't know what you are talking about
3. We are aware of it and EA is working very hard to resolve the issue
4. I don't know what you are talking about, there is no issue
5. What troubleshooting steps have you taken to fix your issue
6. Can you come back later - I don't know what you are talking about - about 3 hours from now there should be someone who can help
7. I am escalating this to the specialist team
8. There is no issue that we know of
9. I now send them the link to this post of 3 pages of global complaints...............
10. I am escalating this to the specialist team - they will email you within the next 2 weeks
here are some suggested answers:
1. When?
2. Whaaaaaaaaaaat?
3. Uh-huh
4. Whaaaaaaaaat?
5. None at all, I'm sitting on my arse doing nothing
6.You want me to wait until 2am? uh-huh
7. Oh goodie - cos' that's been really helpful so far
8. Whaaaaaaaaaat?
9. See that link I'm sending ya? No problem huh?
10. Most excellent - I am delighted to have to wait another fortnight for someone to tell me to uninstall and reinstall origin - HALLELUJAH!
Now what I really need are some of those "how much do you love Origin" Surveys...........

This is Horse...Pucky! Did they do the update to put us off old games so we'd buy new? Come on EA, We game and if the games are worthy, they will be played! Now fix this...Crud!

Hi, i've received confirmation that this bug should be resolved in an upcoming Origin build. I'll update the thread when there's more information.

Thanks for the update on the ongoing overlay issue with Mass Effect 3. The ME3 group I run with is looking forward to having it functional again as keying ALT-TAB to drop out of the game to the desktop is definitely annoying.
