i can only alt-tab once in AH2 (help)
« on: October 17, 2004, 04:42:56 PM »
I can only alt-tab once in AH2.  If i go back to AH2 and press alt-tab command button again, I get picture left overs from AH2 and i cant access another application while executing ALT-TAB.

is there a simple solution to this?:confused:

I bet 10 invisible dollars you have an ATI video card ;)

Any card will do this.  Not just ATI or NVidia.  It is related to the drivers and the state of the Windows registry.  It also varies based on what is running in the background of the system.

I have an ATI card in my work and home systems and can ALT-TAB all day long without any issues.

As to solving the issue, it is difficult.  Typically it is related to upgrading video drivers without taking care to remove previous drivers before upgrading.
