Hi.

I have a problem that started around 3 or 4 weeks ago where Eve will switch to my desktop....not CTD, it's as though i just alt tabbed. I'm running Eve on Windows 7 in full screen mode. Eve doesn't crash and is running fine when i alt tab back into it.

A couple of other guys i know have said the same thing......any ideas please?

Do you have Samsung magician installed and running? this has been known to cause fullscreen DX programs to lose focus/context on eome setups. Another possibility is its linked to the VRAM memory leak some people seem to be running into.

I have this issue when my screensaver kicks in. It tabs out of EVE. I can just tab back in but it's extremely annoying EVE lets the screensaver override it, no other fullscreen applications does this.
