fullscreen

I have a handful of games that freeze when they are in focus. I can't play them anymore, games that used to run fine. If I alt tab, or click on my secondary monitor, it unfreezes and runs fine. I can even hover over the menu items and everything highlights as normal, FPS is fine. As soon as I...

So when I tab out of full screen applications, occasionally all of the windows seem to run at like 3-5 fps, but for some reason, mouse movement is still perfectly smooth. The only way I'm able to fix is this by restarting my computer. I check event viewer when it happens, but there is no event...

Hi! I am experiencing an issue with the refresh rate when running Ryujinx in fullscreen. I have a 144Hz LG monitor, but since emulating in Ryujinx works smoothest with 60Hz, I change the refresh rate of my monitor before I play. The problem is, as soon as I run Ryujinx in fullscreen, the...

I recently upgraded to windows 11 and facing a weird problem in games. When I open a game in fullscreen mode it starts to stutter heavily even if my fps is showing 60. But when I go to windowed mode all of the shuttering vanishes in an instant. Also one thing to note, if I switch tab (alt+tab)...

My Google-fu isn't working: I have 2 monitors. I keep Discord and sometimes an internet browser window open on my secondary monitor most of the time. I game on the primary. I can arrange the windows on my secondary monitor how I like beforehand. Then when I open (or alt-tab...*) into a...

Why does tabbing out of and into full screen games cause it to lag a bit and then load? Sometimes when I do this the game stops responding/crashes/lags for the rest of the playthrough. Why does this happen, and is it different from full screen borderless? Does borderless continue to run in the...

Been seeing this issue posted around the internet since <2015 with no fixes. Unable to tab out of any game, then re-enter. It gives a black screen, then a flash of what the game is, then throws you back out to your desktop. Have the same settings I used to use on my old system: Perform scaling...

When I'm in fullscreen mode on a YouTube video (1920x1080), it starts lagging, but when I'm pressing Alt+Tab and switch to another window (ex. Task Manager), the lag stops, and the quality remains the same. Better understanding in this video: View: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nI3Rf0Mv-Ik...

A little backstory on what happened: Playing R6 Siege, game crashes once during game play, crashes second time sometime later, and as R6 crashing is very rare I decide to update the drivers to 452.06. Updates prompt restart so I restarted and now attempting to run any Direct X11 game in...

Hey guys. I recently got a brand new laptop, with pretty acceptable specs for general college use, but I wanted one that I could also use for some light gaming, like league of legends, cs:go, and so on. It's an ASUS VivoBook, with a Ryzen 5 3500U (Vega 8 Graphics), with 8Gb of RAM and a 256Gb...

I have a GTX 1650, Ryzen 5 and sometimes while playing games like FIFA 19, Ghost Recon etc in full screen mode the screen starts to flicker and as soon as i change to borderless or windowed mode it runs fine then. What should i do to correct this?

Hi I noticed that running some applications, games and the like with a borderless Windowed function is causing the CPU to automatically switch from the power plan I'm using to a uncustomizable high performance mode plan. Examples: full screen in microsoft photos and games like hollow knight...

I have a bit of a strange issue happening where, if I begin downloading a large file with with the MS Store (such as a game) the game download will stop with an error any time I open an exclusive fullscreen application. I'm not sure what could be causing this at all. Anyone have any ideas...

This is an issue I encounter every other day now. I am gaming on a Dell S2716DG and my second monitor is an Asus VP279. I have had both of these monitors working perfectly since last December. The issue presents itself when loading up a game (I've tried multiple different ones). If the game is...

So I have a problem that recently started happening on my PC. When I start up a game in full screen(for example: minecraft, or an emulator) the game duplicates itself to my second monitor. On my main monitor, the game shows the first frame, and just freezes. On the second monitor the game...

For years I have been using my monitor with an standard HDMI setup until this morning when it seemingly spontaneously decided to stop working entirely. When I woke up today and turned my monitor on I was greeted by a persistent "No Signal" message that was only remedied by moving my HDMI from...

I just bought a 2060 and on my second monitor (60 Hz) when I put my applications in full screen it causes stuttering/ screen tearing. I can’t find a solution online but I believe it’s due to the GPU’s FPS being higher than the maximum Hz of my monitor. If there a way I can cap it? Or any other fix?

Is memtest86 that much better than windows internal test? As I've been getting some bsods lately, which seem to be memory related, as all other "fixes" have been done. I will soon pull the sticks, clean, inspect and reinstall. But my radiator kinda blocks it, so I've been putting it off. I have...

Right so I have a 75Hz freesync monitor, I was planning to get an RX 580. Unfortunately it seems to be unavailable absolutely everywhere and won't seem to be in stock until August (Which is too far away from an impatient simpleton such as myself). Is it worth waiting until it's in stock or just...
