Same problem here... Game loads fine, but does not react to keyboard og mouse press.. Also tried with a logitech game controller, a fresh Windows 10 install - still nothing. Very frustrating. PvZ 1 and all other games works fine.
The Garden Warfare games are a major step upward in all respects, and have seriously higher requirements than previous Plants vs Zombies games. Without a qualified machine, this error shows up frequently.

I'd overlooked the great age of the message thread. It is considered a waste of time to dig up threads more than about three months old. I'm less than optimistic about the use of low end Intel video chips for any really decent games. If that's all that you have, I recommend an upgrade of the hardware or a request to a Game Adviser for credit on a less demanding game.
Hi Netbjarne,
I think you are having trouble with PvZ:GW2 right and not the first GW1? This thread is from 2014 and is about the first game.

In GW2 some people have reported problems like this and the solution is rather unorthodox. Users have said (typically Intel Graphics laptops) to do this:
Launch the game.
Minimize when it's up.
Go to Device Manager.
Click on the Intel Display Adapter
Click Update -> It finds nothing ((this step might not be needed))
Now open the game back up.
I don't know why that works but multiple people have said minimizing fixes it until they open it again.

If you have a laptop that has nVidia or AMD supplemental graphics, make sure to force them "ON".
