Edited by: Archonus on 25/04/2008 20:23:52 I am having issues after alt-tabbing out of the client for some reason.
This occurs at random intervals, occurring randomly whether I have alt-tabbed 1 time or 50 times.
When I alt-tab to a different window, the client minimizes as expected. However, when I try to pull the client back up, it will not bring the game back up.
This has happened to me on two different computers using two completely different configurations, so I can not isolate it to an issue on a single PC.
Edit: One PC runs XP, the other runs Vista. Different video cards, different sound cards, different motherboards, different memory, different drivers. |

this has occurred to me as well, but only 2 or 3 times so far in 7 months of playing at random intervals
if I had to guess, it would be that an artifact on screen at the time you tabbed out causes your rendering device to fail to reactivate; look for a pattern
if you think this is going to get you into trouble, I suggest playing windowed

Yeah, as I mentioned else where I've got the same problem. Happens to me several times a day sometimes.
This did not happen before Trinity but has been an on going problem since then.
I can't run EVE on my systems in a window. If even one instance of the program is windowed (or all of them) it lags so badly it is unplayable. Yet running full screen and alt-tabbing has worked well up until Trinity.
Curiously, before Trinity I often had trouble getting my mouse cursor back when I alt-tabbed but that seems to have cleared up.
Sometimes if I hit ESC the menu will refresh the screen enough that I can recover the game but often I have to close the game and restart it.

careful with playing in window. I have the same problem as the OP and windowed mode does fix it. However, if you log in windowed mod the game won't load from the taskbar unless you use to hotkey for full screen. ________________________________________
