    WoW does nothing but minimize since patch

    Since the patch today, when I try to start WoW, all it does is instantly minimize itself. When I try to bring it back up, I get a black screen with music for about half a second, then it minimizes again.

    So far I've tried resetting the options, clearing out my addons, clearing the WTF folder, and trying both the 32-bit and 64-bit clients, which makes no difference.

    Anyone have any suggestions?

    Nope, only the one monitor. It's a laptop.

    EDIT : The minimizing issue goes away if I switch it to windowed mode, but it comes right back on full screen.

    Fighting that condition on my laptop for years. Only solution i have is rebooting once that happens. I´ve got the feeling that nvidia´s "optimus" tech is somehow responsible.
