Does anyone else have the problem I have? Whenever I Alt+Tab or Alt+Enter in MapleStory, all of my other Windows turn black. The only way to get rid of the black is to move the window off screen, and what ever moves out of the screen goes back to normal. Sometimes, the header of a website goes permanently black and the only way to fix it is to restart my browser. Am I the only with this problem? If not, do you know any way to fix this? It's getting really annoying. ; Edit: If you think you know what I'm talking about or you have the same thing, can you post a screeny? Edit: This has been happening for as long as I can remember, even before HackShield. Edit: Another problem I have is that whenever I put MapleStory in Windowed Mode, everything else lags. Edit: Looks like it's not just me and it happens in Vista too. Anyone find out how to fix this yet? Or what causes this?

Lol yeah, If you're using Firefox like I am when Maple is present, it makes Firefox all black.

Scan your computer for potential viruses/corruptive cookies/etc., or minimize your browser before you go onto MS.

FusionSpirit said: "Yeah, its only Firefox." Hmm, it does seem to only happen to Firefox, but why only in XP? o.o @Above I'm sure it's not because of viruses or cookies. Minimizing only works sometimes.

Oh, I just noticed. I think it was only the v.70 patch. Now it seems to working fine. Im running Vista and it USED to turn all black, the same with my XP desktop. Don't worry about it. Hopefully Nexon might fix it. [EDIT] Patch to v.71 If you havent done so. Firefox seems to work fine now. If it still turns black, reinstall Firefox with the latest version and see what happens. :]

There's also Minefield. x] Umm, I never patched to v71 but I'll give that a try. It's really annoying. Also, do you notice that Firefox (when maximized) lags when MapleStory is in Windowed Mode but not when it's Full Screen?

Lol. Patch to v.71. I think the Firefox thing has been resolved. Firefox probably was having problems with the Maple v.70 patch.

I basically had this problem ever since MapleStory was out. Also, when running Maple in Windowed Mode, all my other processes lag... a lot!

It happens to me too. It's happened ever since HackShield was implemented.

Lol. Everytime I window Maple, my laptop fan starts to rev up and spin faster. Yeah maybe it has something to do with Hackshield because my fan never started spin as fast with the old GameGuard.
