Hey folks. Anyone familiar with this problem? I bought Arma 2 and OA seperately, and used the trick from the BI forums to combine them. Anyhoo,every so often, particularly when the AI starts reacting to things that I'm doing to NPCs right in front of me, the game will minimize (or appear to) and I'll continue to hear the sounds of action and things blowing up and me getting shot and other such things, but the view is of my desktop with the Arma mouse cursor, and I can't interact with anything. I have to alt-escape to get my windows mouse cursor back and if I try to bring the Arma window up again, it goes back to the previously described state. Anyone familiar with this? I'm running ACE with it, and using "Arma 2 Launcher." Thanks in advance for help! My DXDiag follows.

It is a fact that high level organisms, having developed the capacity for abstract thought and imagination, can be made to feel threatened in a far greater variety of ways than the simple things that merely crawl around in the grass.
