    I just picked up LA Noire for $5 at gamefly and got it installed on my new m14x and it will not launch. I've tried using the forced optimus mode for high graphics and nothing..game just hangs and eventually the process closes. I've googled this and found hundreds of theories and so called solutions, but little concrete info. All my drivers are up to date. Any ideas?

    Hello Trith, not specifically my area, but I found a forum that gives some really good solutions. A couple of users, for what I saw, got the game working. http://www.la-noire.net

    I found out what the issue was, it wasn't the apps, it was Gamefly. Gamefly is junk and the way they bundle and download their packages is a joke. I had the same problem with Batman AC, so I got a refund on both from Gamefly, and then bought the same two apps, LA Noire and Batman, from Steam and they worked perfectly.
