Krydel Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 I am patched up to 1.5 with the unofficial FO3 patch with NO mods running ( i did do, but i figured problems weren't worth the hassle ) and the game is perfectly stable with no issues other than this one. At random intervals, with no preference as to when it does it, FO3 minimizes to desktop and then of course because of the engine, 90% of the time it will not maximize again (you hear the sound but it wont bring up the game again, causing you to alt f4 and have to work through what you were doing again) I thought this would be something to do with things on desktop trying to steal focus but i dont think i have anything running that would do this. thanks for any help, its fine otherwise but keeps minimizing which is really annoying :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

overload1977 Posted June 1, 2009 Share Posted June 1, 2009 sound like something on your desktop is trying to run when you are in game... ok see if these are running virus scanner defag aka diskeeper Screen saver just stop all background programs you dont need :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydel Posted June 2, 2009 Author Share Posted June 2, 2009 The only background program i dont need running whilst playing FO3 is AVG but i wouldn't have thought that would try and steal focus. other than that i play with no other programs up. I'll give it a go and get back to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krydel Posted June 7, 2009 Author Share Posted June 7, 2009 REALLY annoying the hell out of me now. trying to *SPOILER* escape from project purity when enclave come for you and crashes every 2-3 minutes in that minimizes way. Can nobody help? I paid for a lemon of a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandik Posted June 8, 2009 Share Posted June 8, 2009 try to play in windowed mode... you will enable it via official launcher / options... maybe you will see, what is making FO3 to minimize... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
