Tell more about Your config: - cpu (if it is old, like Athlon XP) - os - monitors number / config - gfx card model / drivers - version of pinballx (if You use old) / FP mods? like Physicist 2.5 / BAM switch /STAYINRAM is only for BAM/FPLoader.exe If You use pure FP, it will don't do anything.

Pocketpal: If i udersted it right, You see [old pinballx window/black screen/windows desktop" then You switch between pinballx menu and FP. I did today tests with nVidia 650TI (gfx drv. 320.49) and i have same "isssue". I don't think it will be easy to "fix". Problem is, that FP uses OpenGL and PinballX uses DirectX. ATI/AMD gfx drivers don't like to create 2 windows with opengl 3d graphics and another with directx. Thats way, when You press "P" to switch menu, pinballx have to: - freeze FP - hide FP windows - create new window with DirectX (it is window displayed on backbox). - switch to pinballx window. Some actions need time and You can see not refreshed windows. PinballX on version prior 1.47 don't stop FP, recreate DirectX window, so switching was fast, but it allways creashes on ATI/AMD gfx. There was also problem with FP and key response. FP need not only visible window, but also playfiled window must get "focus" to process keyboard input. This way it works stable.

If You use BAM, You have to add /STAYINRAM to FPLoader.exe args
