me Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 If you can't alt-tab, then something is seriously wrong with Windows... Try alt-tabbing between different notepad windows, see if that works. Link to comment
Warlord Archon Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 Yes there is definitly something wrong with your windows if you cannot alt+tab out of GTA 3. Does your keboard have a Windows key? Link to comment

Warlord Archon Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 So what. You can't use the windows key with XP? Link to comment

Warlord Archon Posted June 10, 2003 Share Posted June 10, 2003 Oh ok I think I will ignore that last post. But yes, see if you can use the Windows key if you have on on your keyboard. Link to comment

Guest Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 i have xp to but if you use alt tab it is standing in emergency mode (em) but you can always use the windows key just press it for 4 seconds Link to comment
me Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Just hit ctrl-alt-del once, and it should open up the task manager... the task manager should minimize all the windows (why didn't I think of that sooner? ) Link to comment
Riot Posted June 17, 2003 Share Posted June 17, 2003 Just hit ctrl-alt-del once, and it should open up the task manager... the task manager should minimize all the windows (why didn't I think of that sooner? ) CTRL+ALT+DEL opens "Windows Security" for some XP Machines Could also try CTRL+Shift+ESC to open the processes Link to comment
Iggy Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 i didnt read any posts but do u have another program running in the backround caue if u dont it wont wurk im pretty sure Link to comment
tarrant_ino Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 ALT + ESC should perform exactly the same process as pressing the windows key so try that one too !!! Link to comment

ijsf Posted June 21, 2003 Share Posted June 21, 2003 try your other alt button, maybe your left/right alt button or tab button is defect.. try to test all of these buttons Link to comment

Guest Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 this is another question about alt+tab, i think this is very bad and it has happend to me a lot. i get into mta go to the credits adn i press atl+tab. it minimizes it and then a error message comes up saying kernal32 and illegal operation and this has happend b4 with some of my other games when i alt9+tab for other stuff and then it completely freezes, i can only move the mouse, and nothing works and i have to manualy reset my computer, even ctrl+alt+del dosent work Link to comment

Evil Posted July 2, 2003 Share Posted July 2, 2003 i used to get this bug each time i load gta3:( what is do is picture in my head where gta is going to load next to what program on my taskbar. then when i go alt tab i can see my mouse but the game dont tab. so you start clicking around where you think gta loaded and alt tab again boom! works great had this problem with bouth gta3 and gta3vc only seems to happen with the geforce cards driver update fixed it Link to comment
