My Origin Games Issue!

[medicnick83]

Hi all,

So I'm having a issue with all my EA / Origin games!
Basically, all the bloody games will not play in Full Screen! They play in Windows mode even though in the game the settings says FULL SCREEN.
I had this problem ages ago with Need For Speed The Run and ignored it pretty much, now it happens in BF3, BF4, Medal Of Honor Warfighter etc.
The settings all day FULL SCREEN but the games are playing in Windows mode (full screen)

Any idea on how to fix this?

The Run shows me a black screen but you can hear it is working, then when I push the "Windows" key, I can see the game is playing.
BF4; when I play ULTRA settings, the screen goes black, I can only play the game on Medium settings
Ultimately, I'm having issues with all Origin games - anyone have a fix or know of a fix for this?

I changed my graphics card today, but even before the change, I had this issue on the previous graphics card.
Latest drivers for each - issue still there.
I have 2 LCD's (BenQ T2200HD's) and in the games (where possible) the settings are all set correctly.

I had similar issue the other day and it ended up being my team viewer was still running.

Mmmmmmm! I do have TeamViewer installed on my PC so I'm going to check that out tomorrow.

Hi all,

Yes! I closed TeamViewer and bam, it worked!
So TeamViewer was the issue for the 'full screen windowed' issue I've been having with all my Origin games!

Thanks guys for the suggestion and helping me fix this issue.

Alt + Enter, also changes game to windowed mode

Had the same issues, after alting and entering bf4 now defaults to full screen.

Origin is well, siff.

Nope, this does not work - I tried everything buddy, nothing worked, close TV and bam, it works like it is supposed too.

Glad you got it sorted, alt entered to no avail, Teamviewer is a sneaky sob
