Screen goes Black??

Postby Deadeye67 » 27 Feb 2013, 04:34

Okay so my friend and I play FAF just about every night. WHen he alt-tab's in and out of the game there are no problems. But occassionally when I do the TV just goes black. I can still hear everything such as sound fx when you scroll over something. But the Visual is done. I have to turn of the tv and turn it back on to get the video to work. This also occurs when we enter a new game. I have checked the tv and swapped hdmi's. This problem does not happen with any other games on my pc. Does this happen with anyone else? Are there any solutions? Please Help.

I'm using two screens and i have to use FA in window mode. Otherwise the game will crash for me after some alt + tab changes.

If you alt+tab again you can usually choose an active window, then alt+tab back into FA ok. If this doesn't work then occasionally CTRL+ SHIFT + ESC or CTRL+ ALT +DELETE can fix it.

I find this occurs most often if I alt-tab back into the 2nd monitor FA screen rather than the main window.
