    alt + tab not working

    Just found a really cool way to make alt+tab INSTANT!!!

    In the launch options write the following: -windowed -noborder

    This play exactly the same as fullscreen but now you dont have to wait 30 f*@!ing seconds to alt+tab back in!

    Also you don't get the little purple/black checkered effect (only in Source games) from alt+tabbing in fullscreen.

    alt + tab not working

    Specifically in games, I can alt tab out but not back in. It just stays like this:

    Mostly happening with UT3 and sometimes TF2 as well. Any ideas?
