Suddenly, for no apparent reason, the image minimize. I clik on Fs2004 at the bottom of the screen and I'm back OK.Any solution? Thanks.

You wouldn't be running an instant messager program by any chance?

Strange, actually - I've been recently getting this. Foe absolutely no reason whatsoever my FS closes down to the desktop. I then click on the tab and it's instantly back. I've recently doe a reload of my scenery stuff but can't really identify if any of it is the culprit. Not a real issue but kind of annoying if you are immersed in a good complicated departure or approach!Kev

Thanks. I re-install FS2004 and still the same problem.
