I had the same problem recently. I came to find that this is almost always created from a issue with your drivers. You can see my last post about it here: http://www.geekstogo...ng-t154089.html.

Until you can get your problem worked out you can probably play in winowed mode.

how do i make it go 2 windowed mode :S last time i done it was like 5 years ago

[Titan8990]

It should be in video options if you can play that long before it minimizes. Which Warcraft is it? If I have it I can probably tell you how to edit the user settings file for it.

Warcraft 3 frozen throne

I won't be able to tell you specifics because I only have the orginal Warcraft and WOW. I can tell you that if Warcraft III puts a dump in My Documents then the settings file is most likely there. If not it should be in the game directory. It should end in a .ini extenstion, common examples are user.ini, settings.ini, warcraft.ini. Somewhere under Video you should see a line simular to Fullscreen=1 or Fullscreen=True. Changing this to =0 or =False should cause the game to run in windowed mode. In some cases there will also be a Windowed Mode=False.

Always back up the user settings file before altering in case in harm is caused.
