Shadows everywhere in-game......
I'm having this problem where the shadow is all over the area. No matter what I do I can't seem to get it fixed. I'm running this game in high settings with no problems at all. I messed with Cataylst but that's no help at all. Does anyone else have this issue? I believe this is a driver issue but this is the only game that have this problem. I've updated my "outdated drivers" from Dell's "lovable" support service but the problem still exist.
Dell Inspiron 17R 5721
Proccesor: Intel i7 quad core
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 intergated
AMD Radeon HD 8730m dedicated (Currently using, could this be a switchable graphics problem?)
RAM 8GB
Windows 8(64 bit)......

I've used the screenshot to show what problems I'm having.

Perhaps a game problem? Does this happen in every other game or just Burnout? Just seeing what other options you may have. Maybe try downloading it again and giving it a go.

Yeah it's just this game for some reason. Yeah I should re-install it to make sure. Thanks for the help!

Sadly it didn't work. :( I wish I know what the hell is the problem so that I can fix it.

"I'm running this game in high settings with no problems at all" - so you only get the shadows when running in lower settings, or are the shadows present in every preset? Sometimes setting things to medium can work around glitchy textures.

Obviously you have the latest drivers?

Have you tried all the things in the forum? e.g.

I didn't choose the preset, I went on by custom settings. What I ment to say is that I was was running in the highest settings with little to no frame drop. Even if I did it probably wont be any different. I even tried on medium shadows, but it's no different. Yes I updated my drivers but that didn't solve the issue sadly.

Disable SSAO. That helped me with some weird shadows. Using Radeon HD5850

Its already been disabled in-game. I don't think I can even fix the issue. I gave up becuase I don't want to really fustrate myself for one problem. That's a bit sad that the developers can't make a good optimized game for pc without any graphical issue......
