MTD instead of CTD???

Post by kkjensen »

Hi everyone,

For quite some time now I've been getting a "minimize to desktop' problem and I'm not sure if it's software or a bum keyboard or something. PR will minimize and I just have to click back into it....sometimes during the game, somtimes during a map load and even out in the menus. Normally I would expect a stuck key (I've removed the two windows keys since I use Alt/Ctrl a lot and would bump it by accident sometimes) but this doesn't happen in any other program...just PR. I've reinstalled as updates came out and it's still the same.

Does anyone know what might cause this? I guess I could use a keystroke capture program to see if there is maybe a stuck key somewhere but it doesn't happen often enough to make me think that is really it...maybe once or twice in a full evening of playing.

Some other programs (like Steam) that have updates or notices that take your focus may cause another program to minimize to gain that focus. Any notices or updates showing when this happens for you?

This happens frequently with me too, sometimes its another program screaming for attention, but most of the time it just minimizes and I don't otice any other programs or anything.

I have a habit of looking at the scoreboard constantly, and plenty of times I've pressed ALT out of habit to bring up attack markers, thus minimizing it. McAfee also can minimize it.
