Hi,
Im kind of at my wits end here, ill explain. I have two screens, both Dell, one running natively at 1920x1200 (the primary one) and a second running in vertical at 1050x1680.
I generally do most of my gaming on the Main one and keep the MSN/mail/Firefox stuff running on the second, and as such most games I usually played in maximized but window mode. Now, recently I tried some out where the game does not run in window mode, when I enter/exit (alt+tab to desktop) these games the resolution on both screens switches. Usually when this happens, the secondary screen gives me the BSOD, I get a dump and the PC reboots.
I ahve tried isolting the problem as best I could - updated all my drivers, even disconnected the secondary screen and tried running games that made me BSOD on an alt_tab 100% of the time, and everything is fine when the seond screen isnt plugged in, but when it is, I get the errors, so it definitely has to do with my second screen somehow.
Right now my solution is to run gaems in window mode, but well, Id like to know what is causing these errors, maybe there is a fix for it!
My basic specs are
Win 7 Pro x64
Intel Core 2 Quad Q9400
4GB ram
Nvidia GTX285 video card
IVe attached a zip with the minidump files over the past few days, I would appreciate any help.
Cheers,
Jan
