fullscreen

Hi Anyone who is a gamer knows that there are times when you really need a little help. That's a problem in a lot of games that are full screen and can't be minimized easily. You have to go through a process of changing to Windows mode or exiting the game, open you browser, (by this time you...

Good evening. I have an issue with hi-def videos. I have a 2560x1440 monitor, and a gtx 780 card, so I should have no problem running videos @ 1440p, but when I go to full-screen the video switches back to the small screen and downscales to 480p at the :10 second mark. Then, when I expand the...

Hi Guys Right I am not to sure whether this is a windows problem or a GPU problem however please let me know what you guys think. Whenever I am using an application that requires having a window open (e.g. Chrome or control panel) I will be using it for a couple of seconds/minutes and I can...

If I open a PDF file or some other kinds of files, I can't figure out how to quickly exit and get back to the desktop. In other Windows versions, the handy Escape key or Back arrow would do that. Now, if I press Escape nothing happens and I have to reboot the computer because the PDF takes up...

Everytime I am using my computer and have an active window it de-selects itself. I have no clue why. When I am playing fullscreen games it minimizes itself, and pauses other games. It stops me from typing, I cannot live with it. Any solutions to this? -I've done a full scan with malwarebytes...

While working I mostly use Chrome. Even so the fullscreen IE metro appp is quite appealing and its nice to wander sometimes while using it.So there is no other way of keeping it as app too without seting IE as default browser. And on a side note: That Browser choice shoulnt dissapear once Ive...

Welcome, As in the topic I wanted to know how I could play a game ( World in Conflict ) in DirectX 10? I can't get WIC to work because it crashes after going to black screen in xp sp3 compatibility mode. Normally it is worse: it doesn't even go fullscreen. In massgate forums they told...

This is a newer issue for me. I am not sure if there is some setting that may have changed. I can't say for certain how long ago the problem started but I've only noticed it in the past couple of days. I haven't changed any system settings (some updates were installed). I always wondered how to...

I've seen on this forum that a bunch of people are having the focus stealing issues. However, while all of their problems are about a window stealing focus, my taskbar is stealing focus. I could be typing something up and then the window I'm typing in deselects. Nothing pops up or anything, just...

I recently had re-install windows. The new installation was successful, but whenever I play a game that is full screen or use an application that is full screen, my Eyefinity gets disabled when I quit the application or Alt+Tab out of the application/game. Any way to fix this?

For example, if I'm typing in Word, randomly the Word application/window will get unselected, as if I clicked something else. I won't be able to type anymore until I click the Word window again, it's pretty annoying too since I'm a fast typer. And this happens with everything. Games, browsers...

This is really annoying when playing a game as it causes the game to drop out and go back to the desktop. It also does it when watching a Youtube video on full screen or watching a video in Windows Media Player blocking the controls and being generally unsightly in both cases. I don't want the...

I've been playing around with some batch files, and was trying to get the cmd to run in fullscreen mode. I used the same technique that i used in windows XP, using the line:"reg add HKCU\Console\ /v Fullscreen /t REG_DWORD /d 1" in a batch file to make the cmd go fullscreen by default. Now my...
