Hi community! :)
I really like ArmA2 so far, were it not for the annoying minimizing-bug, that has been described numerous times across the net, but never has been satisfactorly solved.
Problem description:
Playing for several to about 30 minutes without a problem
Suddenly ArmA seems to minimize
ArmA can't be brought back by clicking on the Task nor by [Alt]+[Tab]
When clicking on the Task, the sound plays and apparently you can move, shoot etc. but all you see is your desktop
Temporary solution / Improvements:
When problem occurs, pressing [shift]+[Num -], entering "flush": Graphicengine or similar seems to reload
Deactivate Multi-Monitor-Setup: It takes longer until the problem occurs
I'm playing on an AMD Athlon II X4 @ 3.20 GHz, 8 GB RAM and an NVIDIA GTX 650 Ti with 1 GB VRAM (driver version 314.07). OS is Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. Normally I've got three monitors attached to the GTX, when playing ArmA2 however I deactivate all screens but my main screen - a 1080p 23" Acer.
I hope we can come to a real solution that gets rid of the problem completely. Maybe we can make it sticky then, since the problem seems to occur frequently.
Thanks all
- Oli
