Anyone else get 'white screen' in WinUAE when going away and back?
When going away from WinUAE, for example to a web browser, then when I go back, I sometimes get an unresponsive WinUAE. Its window contents is white and I get the "hourglass" Windows mouse pointer. Looking in Processes, WinUAE uses 50%, which I suspect is full use of 1 core. (I have a C2D E4300 cpu.)
Anyone else get this sometimes? (Is it related to hogging of some enumerated display device or similar? Would be strange if the browser hogged DirectX or something, and this time I was only on this forum and a bank page.) |

Maybe try to press F12 or pause/break before alt+tab.

If you have Vista or Windows 7: Right click winuae on task manager, select "Create Dump File". Uploaded the dump file somewhere (which unfortunately is usually really big..)

XP SP2 here. Sorry, I thought that was in the attached config file or I would have said.
 Maybe an "auto-F12" when alt-tabbing away from WinUAE would solve both this and that alt-key-thing Toni? And "Auto-OKbuttonclick" when coming back. Just an idea. I'd be happy with that, if it's possible. |

The config file in the alt-tab thread
attached the same here too. As I said there I can't seem to manage to get WinUAE to make a log file for some reason.

Run "winuae -log" and check if log window mentions something. Buy a better PC or something like that is probably the only suggestion I can say at this point
