it looks like that. if i alt tab it goes back to normal and i can see everything again, but that is pretty annoying having to do that after every game.

im on windows xp with a 8800GTS (640mb) with 163.44 drivers if that matters.

also, is it possible to make the resolution always be 1920x1200 even on the menu screens? i know it goes to 1920x1200 in game, but i would like it to be the same on the menu screen so i dont have a black screen from the resolution switching on the monitor 2-4 seconds into the game starting. :(

As a workaround, you can try pressing Shift+Escape to minimize the game, and then restore it.

thats what ive been doing, but i was wondering if this was happening to more people than just me and it gets kind of annoying having to do that after every game. :/

Yeah, I have it too. Gets annoying when it happens while trying to complete a TCB challenge and you're having trouble with it :)

I get it too, minimising by moving the cursor to the bottom of the screen and then restoring works as well.

If you only want to start the next round, a couple spacebar presses should do the trick. For me it only starts working after the second round, though.
