Game Client Minimizes Itself

[DJMuffinman]

Hey forums.,

 

I'm running Win7 x64 with 8gb RAM and a hex-core processor with two ATI 4800 series graphics cards and two monitors, one plugged into each card.

 

I play FNV through Steam in fullscreen on my primary monitor, and I've been constantly running into a problem where my game client will minimize itself to the desktop. The game is NOT crashing, only minimizing.

 

This happens in fullscreen, windowed mode, with AND without crossfire on. It happens less when crossfire is on but still happens. It usually minimizes when I am pressing something on the keyboard while looking around, i.e., travelling, and it happens A LOT. I've noticed that if I look around too quickly (and cause a stutter in the graphics from moving too fast) while pressing any of the movement keys it will minimize the window.

 

I have confirmed that neither my memory nor processor are being taxed too hard, and this has never happened with other games, not even FO3 or other games that require a lot of whipping around while moving.

 

I've found that when in windowed mode, when the game minimizes another window will gain focus and I'll be spamming whatever key (like W, for instance) into any text field that may be there. I have tried closing all windows other than the game, and it will still minimize.

 

I've done a lot of googling and checked the steam forums, and haven't found anything similar to my problem. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Might wanna look in your control panel under accesibility and make sure stickykeys and things of that nature are disabled
