Sim City

[Chris in U.K.]

I'm quite fond of Sim City, but there are times when I would like to minimise it or make it run in the background, so that I can quickly do some other stuff and then come back to it without doing the whole save-exit-start-load business every time. Anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks,

Chris.

ALT+TAB and CTRL+ESC should both work.

Thanks RJ, I tried a few key combinations, but it looks like I messed the obvious one. I'll try them later.

BTW RJ, your setup makes mine look like a rather eldery calculator - what do you use it for mostly?

Mostly I use it for gaming and TV/DVD viewing + recording (let's say I had a PC for games and transferred the complete TV+VCR setup into it).
Then comes surfing the web/email and play games with friends (networking).
Also I do a bit programming, but not so much.

BTW, did you try the key combination ?

Yes I did, and it worked like a charm.

Thanks again,

Chris.

Yeah, Sim City is a great game. I've played every version up to 3000, and each time it gets better. Although I think there really isn't really a revolutionary difference between 2000 and 3000, as there was between the original and 2000. Has anybody else played all of them?
