When I start BF3, it opens but with black screen, after few seconds, I heard the loading screen theme music and sounds, but still in black.
After I realise the sounds have loaded finish, still haven't show out anything.
So I ALT + TAB and miracally it works, but when I alt + tab, I can see that BF3 is in windowed screen size.
After alt+tab back into BF3, I can see the main menu in full screen though.
When I tried to use my mouse to click on options in the main menu, it doesn't work.
I can only use my arrow keys and Enter to select the options, which makes me only can set the settings in the first tab of the Options.
Then, I tried to play BF3 campaign, after my character jump onto the train and shoots some guy, there's a gun blocking the door. I don't know how to take it away because the instructions is out of my screen ( I saw 1/4 of the words on top left of my screen, only a bit ).
Anyone has solution to this problem ? Can't play BF3
