Hi all,

just wondering If anyone have the same problem, when Im playing DA:O, every 15min or something like this, my game auto Alt Tab me to desktop, and this is very annoying, specially in the middle of a battle. Anyone have any clue of what may be doing this. Its the first time a game is doing this to me...

Thanks

This is quite odd. I assume you are playing in full screen?



What I'm going to suggest is that you have a background task running on your PC that is vying for attention ( such as an anti-virus wanting a re-start, a web page that os auto updating and gaining priority over the display, something of that nature.

I don't expect it is game related at all, but your PC taking focus away from the game for a process that has higher priority.



But I'm unsure without more info so that's a best guess.

Yup, same effect here - it's driving me crackers!

I'm running it on Windows 7 64bit - and nothing else drops to the desktop in this way.

Certain programs you run in the background can tab you out of the game because they want to give you a message or ask you for input. I would recommend shutting down any non-essential processes you have running in the background when you play the game.



Another culprit is the windows key (if you have one on your keyboard); it can be accidentally pressed or the sensor underneath get stuck so it tabs you out.

Ok, thx for the fast reply, I'll give a try to closing all other application...



To BlueHooper, oh yeah man, Its driving me crazy to, always during a battle, bang alt tab, and by the time you can switch It back one of your character's dead... ahhh



Ok thx, Ill give It a try

are you running AVG 9.0? there's a known glitch with it doing this

[BlueHooper]

AVG ... ah, that might be it! I'll have a search around - thanks Jiron

Having the same problem and also running AVG 9.0 ...going to do a little research as well.

[Misterbill]

Hmmm....I played 50+ hours and never had the problem.,..now it happens frequently. I did recently upgrade to AVG 9.0, so maybe that is somehow causing it. AVG is not running when I play though.

[Eyowin]

I have AVG 9.0 free edition to here...

[JironGhrad]

Setting AVG 9.0 to game mode has reportedly cleared this up for some people, not sure how to do that though as I've not used 9.0

[Eyowin]

Well I've puted It off for gametime and I did not have the issue again, look like It was the source of the problem... Thx all, appreciated It

I'm having the same problems after I finally updated AVG to 9.0 yesterday, good thing there was already a thread about it

Anyone know how to set AVG 9.0 to "game mode" though? I would prefer not closing it down if I could avoid it.

Thanks in advance!

I was using AVG in the past, but they began really reducing the efficiency of the free version, which Avast hasn't done, so far, so I got rid of all AVG installs.  I also occasionally run some older PCs on Win98se, and AVG doesn't support that OS, maybe not Win2000, either, which I prefer over WinXP.

Sounds like I should give Avast a try then, thanks
