Freezing When Trying to Minimize [ Edited ]

[HippieWiccan13]

Everything was fine yesterday...

Now, every time I hit the Windows key to minimize the game my laptop freezes!  Help!

**Update: I have completely uninstalled all the SPs & Eps as well as the base game.  I am going to see if a clean install fixes this issue...

**Update: No joy with the reinstall.  All I have in is the basegame and it will not minimize tot he desktop.  Every time I push the Windows button or ALT+TAB my computer freezes.  It was not doing this yesterday and now it is...

Any ideas???

Ok...so I have tried everything I can think of and nothing works!  Even with just the base game installed it will not minimize!

I can put it in windowed mode so I guess, to access my desktop while playing, that is what I will have to do!

Please...does anyone know of a solution????

I found a partial work around...I can put the game in windowed mode, access the desktop or whatever it is I need to do, then go back to full screen...

This is a right PITA and not how it's supposed to work!

Is anyone else having this issue?
