Windows key & alt-tab crashes app

hello,

it seems that whenever my fullscreen app gets minimized or isnt fullscreen
anymore ( like when the windows key or alt-tab is pressed ) that the app
crashes with a standard parachute deployed error. is there anyway to disable
the windows key or alt-tab from bring up the change-program box? or does
anybody have any suggestions as to why my app is crashing?

thanx,

Might be a result of DirectX losing your surfaces when you leave
fullscreen mode… Are you doing s/w rendering (via ->pixels) into
h/w surfaces?
