Full Screen bugs

[ZORG1986]

On most versions of graal ive seen this bug, and it happens on other peoples computers not just mine. When you maximize graal so it runs on full screen, it becomes very unstable, when you hold ALT and press ENTER to minimize it my comp will normaly crash and some times when i press ESC and close graal Graal will perform and illegal error and close the AOL will go down with it, then Explorer and then i get the BSOD (blue screen of death) and my comp will need to restart...........is this the programming language graal uses? or is it the way graal is programmed?

anyways, ALT+ENTER is FULLSCREEN Mode and it crashes my graal 99% of the time and i have CABLE =P

then i get a DirectX error and have to restart the CPU

Yes thank you, that is exactly what happens, but i play other online games that run in full screen mode and are multi-player...and they dont crash, i just wanted to know what the reason for this is....

And seen as you arnt excepting Private Messages MoonAngle, Ill post it here, what did you do to your cool signature pic? how could you remove it, when it looked wicked

Probably a problem with the video card and
re-initializing graphics in memory. As far as I know
most commercial games don't support
switching between fullscreen and window mode
because its very complicated to support both
modes or even switch between them. It gets more
complicated if the card supports hardware direct3d
acceleration in full screen but not in window mode.

It can also be a problem with the windows ressources,
do you still have the problem with the v21 test versions?

v21 test hasnt crashed on me yet....but i havent used it that much....
