Minimizing bug

Post » Tue Mar 16, 2010 12:04 pm

Greetings Bethesda forums!

I just have a small issue with the game. It seems that after a certain amount of time in the game, it minimizes and won't re-open. No matter what I try to maximize the game, it won't bring it back up. The game still runs after it minimizes. I just can't get it back and I have to close it myself. Do any of you have any suggestions as to what I should do? Do I have to run it in compatibility mode or something?

I get this issue occasionally. The only thing that works for me is just to restart it.

Running any AntiVirus software when playing? That has been known to cause it sometimes. Other times for me, I found having Firefox open can cause it too.

No Antivirus program is running. So it's possible that it may be that Firefox is open. I'll try it with it closed and see if anything changes.

I've had this problem with every single Bethesda game I've owned. I just accepted it lol.
