I literally started this thread so people would not buy the game with this graphic card, i do not think there is a refund because
EA will blame it on Nvidia, and Nvidia will blame it on the EA and they will keep tossing the ball and we consumers suffer because thats how it works.
You can cross your finger and some MIRACLE nvidia engineer decides to give a sh*t and update the driver properly, despite my 5 threads on Geforce forums, nobody has a solution yet neither.
I am waiting on you guys to tell me when it is time to buy the game lol till then I will work more and try to make money haa

Day 62, still no solution, sweet

nVIDIA has a corporate attitude of combativeness, rather than cooperation. If EA / DICE asked them to provide technicsl information on their Optimus hardware and drivers to allow programmers to create a patch working around the ineptitude of nVIDIA's engineers, they almost certainly would seem to agree, and then do nothing.
Without SOME kind of feedback, DICE is unlikely to attempt to backward engineer the drivers to trap whatever foolish error that nVIDIA has made, and won't actually apply resources to fix.
My advice for the entire time that the Optimus product has existed is to avoid laptops relying on that faulty technology, and stick to AMD Radeons for mobile computers.

Nvidia Officially acknowledged and responded to the issue at GeForce Forums ( Yea, 2 Months and thousands of complaints later )
" ManuelGuzman said:Just a quick update. We believe we have identified the root cause and are in the process of creating a hotfix driver. As soon as the hotfix driver is available for download, we will make an announcement on this forum. "

If they actually follow through, that's the first bright spot in the many years long debacle that is the career of all the Optimus cripples.

Hey @xryluwu,
looking at the age of the thread, I'd recommend just getting the latest driver off the nvidia website right here.

sorry but my graphics card isnt an nVidia, it's an intel Pentium Dual Core 2.0 Ghz. Would you still have a fix for me?

Hey @xryluwu,
sorry for getting back at you so late - would you be so kind to provide a DxDiag file? Here's how you can do that.
This would provide information about your hardware, graphics card and drivers, which would make it easier to help.
