this is my second post in this forum..i am been having some issues lately.
whenever i play a game on my windows PC , it suddenly minimizes
it seems that the culprit is an application in the background whic randomly shows up for some microseconds.
so i can't find out the app causing this trouble. i am so mad right now :-x
what should i do?
i just uninstalled steam right now.
no help.

^^ this sometime happens due to low system memory - how much ram you have installed on pc and post your pc config in details.

must be an issue with very low vram of the 8400GS or any other gu related issue - if you are serious about gaming consider changing the GPU .

BTW, what PSu do you have and your OS is win 7 ??
