Hi all, I did post this over in the PC game forum but had no joy and I suppose it may be either windows or software related so though id try here, If im in the wrong forum please delete, sorry.

I have 2 games installed on this pc, BF2 and HL2 and the problem I am having is not being able to exit to windows and keep the game running in the background by using ctrl alt & del or alt & tab, When I press the ctrl alt tab it brings the task manager up but I cant see it as it doesnt exit the game screen, sometimes the actual task manager box can be seen on my game screen but theres no options or text visible. Alt and Tab have a similar effect I can see it work the game pauses but the game screen doesnt exit? Not too much of a problem I know but when you need to get out of bf2 and ask for a server slot and get back in quick its near on impossible to do without someone else grabbing your slot.

thanks
