Problem, alt-tab, winxp 32 bit, Radeon 9.11
#1
Hi!

Has anyone got a problem when cycling thru running applications using alt-tab on Windows Xp?

For example, you start XBMC and start scraping files and then you alt-tab back to you're desktop and after the first alt-tab, it doesn't work and you get a black screen?

You can hear the sound when moving around with the cursor keys, but the screen remains black, you can't get to desktop or Task Manager (well you can start Task Manager, but screen still remains black). To solve the problem I have to Remote Desktop from another computer and kill XBMC.

I don't have this problem with my Vista x64 machine.

Spec
XBMC Beta 2
WinXp Pro Sp3
Ati 4670 Radeon 9.11
Core 2 Duo
2 GB memory

Do you get Debug log when you kill the application from Windows and not closing XBMC the standard way?

Best regards
