    Slow Alt tab on new laptop


    I got a new Lenovo C940 yesterday and have been having 1 problem with it. I use Alt tab quite a lot but on this laptop it's been really slow, almost as if it pauses before switching windows. Anybody know how I can fix it? Also I have focus assist off and haven't done any gaming on it. this is a video I took of what's happening

    alt tabbing increases system performance?

    To add to the library here: Blacklight Retribution doesn't respond well on alt+tab. At least on my laptop.

    Slow alt-tab


    Hello,

    I just uprgaded to W10 recently, and discovered very annoying problem. Since I work with modding some games, I have to alt-tab a lot, from full screen to desktop. In W7 it was taking like 1 second to alt-tab to deskop, but on W10 it is like 4-5 seconds, and I hate losing this time, it feels like 5 times longer. Is this normal, is my PC spec to slow for W10 + alt-tam games? I don't mention any particular game, because I tried many of them, and it happens on them all, old games, new games, same thing...

    My drivers are up to date.

    Please advice something, I still have 5 days to revert to W7 then it will be too late.

    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.
