One of my custom shaders wasn't liking the alt+tab business. Thanks for the tips guys, but I finally figured it out. Then once I'm done doing screenshots, that's the tricky bit for me - have to ctrl-alt-del, switch to oblivion in the task manager, *and* alt-tab to Oblivion as well. Hrm, can't get back in from after canceling sticky keys on the desktop? I usually just hit the minimized Oblivion on my desktop & wait some seconds, game comes back up (sometimes not frozen, though). Well ever since I got my 8600, in order to get it to work I've had to both click on the Taskbar slot for Oblivion as well as Alt-Tab the program after doing the whole sticky keys thing.

Anyone else have/had this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it? Its not that I can't get it to stop, I can't actually get back into the game once I hit shift 5 times, or Alt+Tab. I wasn't sure where to put this, but since the majority of people read this I'll put it here: I can't get trolfs trick to work anymore. More regarding 'trollf's Trick' and minimizing Oblivion.

Using Alt-Tab to exit Oblivion, even when not using trollf's Trick, almost always results in a freeze-up of OB, if I don't return to OB within 10 minutes or so. I can keep OB up all day via the StickyKeys approach and return to it later, and take another shot. However, if I only use the StickyKeys approach (5 quick hits on the shift key), I exit OB, cancel the StickyKeys, and then return to OB readily to take my shots. Though when using trollf's Trick, if you have used 'ALT-Tab' to leave the program, once you return, the character's options are activated (like it is when you hit ALT in the game itself), and now OB will be frozen. I don't know why this is so but it worked in Morrowind and seems to work just as well (for me, at least) in Oblivion. I keep a blank copy of Notepad on my desktop when I start Oblivion and rarely have a crash anymore when minimizing the game. Sanitењњheck, I've found that leaving a second program open makes minimizing/maximizing Oblivion easier and more stable. I keep a open microsoft word so i can alt tab, and i use qqq in console to quit instead of long menu Also rebooting every few days has helped a lot.

But yes, sometimes it does crash, though not so much any more as I had a few mods that were causing trouble, and removed them. I have found often times that OB hasn't really crashed though - it has just been exited from, so when I return and Alt or Esc, I can continue the game. :gun::brokencomputer:I know what you mean about some external program popping up and causing OB to apparently crash. I'm worried my computer will explode with all the minimizing and maximizing the procedure requires. My game crashes when something pops up and minimizes it, or at times when I exit. Saw that post, but I haven't tried it yet due to the 'instability' of my current intallation. Great 'confirmation' shots highpressure!!! The trick works great for me! Thanks so much for the extremely helpful info Trolf! :bowdown: Here are some examples of trollf's Trick by highpressure and Floydian1: I know it works flawlessy on my machine. I don't know if the above procedure works exactly as described at any time.
