Xp Auto Minimize / Cant Maximize
Hi, Im using XP Pro, and it has started to Minimize almost every program I try to use. I can hear Audio (if im trying to run a game) but the program is minimized. I try to open it, get a black screen for about 3 seconds, and it gets minimized again.
Very annoying, I did get 1 program to work for a little while by rebooting a few (!) times, but even this has stoped working now.. Thanks for any help |

first do a full anti virus scan with a uptodate virus scaner then try booting to safe moad by pressing f8 affter the bios setup finishes when in safe moad try and run system restore all so if you have a broad band internet conection unplug the cable from the back of the computer and test a few programs
