Moomaster666 Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I have been having this problem for a few weeks now. Every few minutes, the current window will become inactive. So i have to click on it and it will make the window active again. Normally it wouldn't be that big of a problem, but i cannot watch videos in full screen, I cannot play video games, and its just a plane bother. Please help.

Dencandy Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Hello Moomaster666, & welcome to the forum. The current window becomes "inactive" - does that mean it freezes?I take it you are using XP. Have you installed any new programs recently? Sometimes they conflict with Windows & make it behave strangely, so you could try uninstalling them to see if that makes a difference.If you haven't installed anything new which might cause this problem you could try using System Restore to put your system back to the state it was in before the problem started. Open All Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore. Then pick a date before the problem started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 I believe "inactive" means losing focus, meaning something else has "stolen" focus. This could even be something invisible.Do you have active malware protection, and did you recently do a full scan of your system? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
