Hi tftv, was hoping you could help with an issue I've encountered recently (it only started happening yesterday or the day before):
When I'm playing tf2, every 30 minutes or so, my screen will go black for a couple of seconds and then go to my desktop, but the game doesn't shut down and I can go back to it a few seconds later - almost like I alt-tabbed out, although I can't remember pressing any specific key or doing anything else before it happened.
Has anyone else had this problem? Could anyone suggest a solution? Thanks.

Are you by chance running a dual monitor set-up?

does it happen during fast mouse movements? like you accidentally flick to outside the game?

Nope, I only have one monitor.

This has happened to me quite a lot in other games such as Binding of Isaac recently, but never in TF2 - I don't think my sens is high enough. It also just happens at regular intervals of 30m or so, instead of happening whenever I flick my mouse.

Does this tabbing happen after extended play sessions of other games, too?
Sounds to me like an external program causing it.

I know my shitty antivirus always tabs me out at regular times in the day. Maybe that
