Title: Game keeps minimizing
Post by: luke9511 on January 14, 2011, 03:32:01 PM
Hello all everytime I start up BC it will load but will minimize to the taskbar and I have to keep clicking before it will stay ontop but even then it might not stay and now I cant get a menu at all just black with pictures of the sov on the main menu screen, im running dual ati 4850's with 4gigs of ram and windows 7 64bit any help with this issue would be great

Close any other open programs before you start playing BC.

Tried that still does it and all my drivers are up to date, this is a fresh install with no mods

Try switching to windowed mode and then reverting back.

options.cfg
Code: [Select]
Fullscreen Mode|1
Fullscreen Mode|0

It won't go into window mode it stays in full screen

EDIT I switched the color depth from 16 to 32 and managed to get into game but as soon as I go to options all the menu buttons go black and all I can see is the sov and the other animation

EDIT EDIT I got it into windowed mode by running as admin and it works fine though I wish it was full screen I guess I just have to deal with it like this

If installed in program files.. Try making a new install outside program files. Then I think it will work okay.
