Vapour Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I Alt-Tab out of the game, it minimizes, I click to maximize it and my computer freezes unless I ctrl+alt+del and end BS. Any ideas how to stop this, it's really irritating during a coop. XP SP3 E6750 C2D 8800GTX 4 Gig DDR2 550W PSU
geogob Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 Are you running the game in full screen mode? Try to uncheck fullscreen in the options. I noted that everything is more stable when not full screen (even though, it behave like a full screen game anyways). This might improve your alt-tab behavior. I have a similar system without any alt-tabbing issues. Make sure you have the latest nvidia drivers too.
miguez Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 (even though, it behave like a full screen game anyways) That is only true if you have the game set to the same resolution as your Windows screen resolution.
Vitesse2l Posted January 11, 2009 Posted January 11, 2009 I had no problems with alt-tab until I tried switching off the page file. After I restored it to 'system managed', Alt-Tab was OK again.
