Hello,

since the first update after relaunch, my screen switches every 10 minutes back to desk top :/ Game runs.
I already tried to clear everything: Browsers Cache, Flashplayer, Registry.
I also tried to change from Chrome to IE - same procedure every 10 minutes....^^
I updated Windows and graphics driver...
I tried to deactivate firewall and virus scan ..... all the same.

Windows 7 ultimate Sp1, Intel core duo CPU , 3.3 ; NVidia GForce 210 ... what else should I mention ?

Any suggestions or hints ? :oops:

Regards,
Eska

Switches back to desktop? Are you saying that the DAoC client is being minimized?

Yes, to task bar. Meanwhile I installed another virus and trojann prog - without any better results.

It still switches every 10 Minutes - consider what this means for fight or run .... can't play like that :(

When you have this problem, is DAoC in fullscreen or window?

My opinion is that this is probably not a bug with Uthgard, but something else is going on with the computer.

Yes I'm playing in fullscreen. And guess what - after 8 am it only switches all 30 minutes
instead of all 10 minutes.... strange :/

I agree ... it must be something with the computer, even if the prob appeared after the first update after relaunch. Before update all was okay. *sigh....

I'm too old for that ....

With a little help I know now what it is but, I don't know how to delete the prob.

It is the HealthMonitor wich crashes every 15 Minutes now. I Don't know why and how to handle :(

It was pretty nice if someone who has more expierience than me could say a word ! :)

Need urgent help - otherwise I can't play.

if it makes you feel better i completely fixed mine, i found the DOAC itself and run it as administrator and it worked for me.

This sounds a lot likesome program running on your computer is periodically having priority over DaoC.

One that is greatly known by now to cause things like this is Skype when changing the advertisement banners in it.

But to be sure, could you list what you have all running in the background?

Something else you can also do is starting the task manager and have an eye on your processes and watch if something pops up every 10 minutes (AKA when daoc gets minimized).

Edit: Didn't see the post with health monitor.

I actually don't even know what health monitor is as program, but if you have no need for it, I suggest shutting it down/turning it off when you play daoc.
