PROBLEM:
For somereason about half of my games will only run when i have my desktop resolution set to the games resolution. Havnt played css or any game in about 3 days, then when i play, right before the main menu screen comes up it minimizes, everysingle time, then i have to end it. I can play dods fine but css wont start up inless my desktop res is set to 1024x768. This happends to about half of my games. PLZ HELP!!!!

WHAT I DID:
-Updated Drivers
-Played with settings
-Reinstalled Mobo,vcard
-Reinstalled DirectX9c
-I did everything possible :(

I tried doing Start>Run>Dxdiag, to see if anything happend. When i test my Direct3D, it goes to screen with dxbox, then cancels out and says, "You Cancled the test by pressing a key"

:( this is really an annoying problem from switching to my fav desktop res 1280x1024 to 1024x768 or any res, just to play a game :(( HELP
