Thanx.I'm using Vista64 and do not have any issues ALT-TABing between FSX and the desktop. What type of video card are you using? and are your drivers up to date?
August 10, 200817 yr BFG 8800 GTS w/ 568 MB DRAM, latest nVidia drivers but also tried previous ones including the old stand by v163.
September 3, 200817 yr Do you have Vista SP1. I also had trouble with ALT/TAB, but seems better with all the updates. Although, usually I go to windowed mode then minimize.Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
September 3, 200817 yr As I recall, this is a known driver issue at NVIDIA with FSX. If you read the info they provide for each release of display drivers, this is shown as an issue (or it was up to the 177.83 WHQL release). Good luck in seeing a fix. Best way to goto the desktop is to Alt/Enter to get to Windowed Mode, goto desktop, then Alt/Enter back to Full Screen.Jim
