[old report] PvZ GW2 - Keyboard and Mouse are not responding

You are seeing exactly what the developers anticipated for you to see.  There is no support in either game for any of Intel's wannabe video devices.

Any suggestion from a member that results in a fried video chip from overstress and overstrain must be understood to be the gamble taken by another member who was unwilling to accept the official limitations established by the published system requirements.

try update your graphics card driver?

I don't know how this happened, but I press alt tab or other stuff and it istarted to work

I'm still having this problem where my mouse and keyboard still aren't working when i launch the game. I did all the control panel stuff, which got the game running. I HAVE actually been able to get the mouse and keyboard working somehow and was able to play the game. but every time i open the game again, I can't use the mouse or keyboard. even tho, during the intro i can move the mouse around on the screen, but can't click or skip intro, (if that's even possible), and when i'm in the village thing where you spawn when first loading in, I can't move, or shoot, or look around.

I barely make the specs for the game, but I lowered settings when I actually had the chance to, so it does actually run for me. Just really annoying that the mouse and keyboard won't be recognized consistently. I've been looking through the forums and google. and all the answers say to do the nvidia control panel thing, which i already did, so please don't respond with that. I also read something about the origin client thing, but when i try to start mine in the task manager, it starts, goes to running, then immediately stops. Does it need to be constantly running, if so, how do i get it to keep running? 

Also, is there a command line to launch the program in full screen? I changed it to windowed to stream, and i'm not sure if that has anything to do with it? if not nvm this last question, if it does any help would be appreciated. 🙂

Thank you.

Running a game in a window reduces the stress that the game puts on a low end system, enabling it to run, at least to some extent, when otherwise it cannot. 

nVIDIA's mobile video devices have innumerable problems of all kinds, they are unreliable and unstable, and will ignore the control panel settings quite often.  Certain of them have been much worse than others.  The 660s, 760s, and 860s of Optimus cards are apparently the most faulty of all in that regard, and required considerable work on the drivers to overcome the defects.  

Silent, start the game, alt+tab out, right click the Start in the bottom right hand corner, select Device Manager. Then select Display Adapter, then open the video card there that is the 'real' video card. At that point, go back in game, and let me know if it caused your keyboard/mouse to start responding. This has worked for me and others.
