    Windows minimizing instantly
    « on: February 19, 2009, 02:43:09 PM »
    I have a  peculiar problem. I'm running Vista Home Premium and when ever I open a window to Windows Explorer, Email and various others apps, the window minimizes immediately and I have to maximize it back from the application toolbar. If I don't place my cursor directly into the window when it maximizes, it minimizes again. I have no virus with anti-virus by Panda. What is going on here?

    We need more info.

    When did it start?

    Have you tried a System Restore to a few days before this started?

      That's certainly alot more info...
      What kind of machine is this ? ?
      What specs can you post about it ? ?
      Did it come with Vista or did you install it ? ?
