alt/tab

[evzy]

I know this is a daoc forum etc, but more chance of an answer here methinks

Basically when playing WoW I can alt/tab to desktop once, but 2nd time I try it never lets me - shows the little pointy arrow but stays in the game gfx. Tried selecting windowed mode as well but everytime I do it just hangs the game up til I have to reboot....

anyone had similar probs / got any ideas?

Hmmm I thought for a second you had posted something helpful and I was going to have to reward you with the special +5 green blocks rep, but alas...no

Now go and google me an answer so I can rep you with the ickle rep stick...

try the windows key and 'm' at the same time, might work (minimizes everything)

update your gfx card drivers, if they are already at most updated then reinstall them

check latest version of directx as well (9.0c maybe?)
