After last patch the game doesn't work in fullscreen mode on AMD A10-5800K with Radeon 7660D. The game drops down to tray and that's all. Looks like an issue with GPU of driver compatibility. Before April 16's update Mechwarrior Online worked fine. Driver version is 13.1 as before.

Try using the 13.3 beta driver and/or switching it to "full window" mode, which acts like full screen, except minus all the bugs

A clanmate of mine has the same issue.
His workaround: Set the game to window mode and press alt+enter at every match start to manully enable fullscreen mode.
Works for him.

Thanks for replies! Alt+Enter doesn't help. "Full Window" works fine, but looks like very pixelated. I'll try to use beta driver.

Make sure the resolution didn't change when you set it to full window mode

It's working! I don't know why, I had no time to try beta driver. Just haven't played MWO for a couple of days. Today decided to give it a try one more time and it's working in fullscreen mode!
Looks like, the computer needs to be restarted after MWO update... :rolleyes:
