From some days my Fifa 12 has started to minimise automatically during playing the game.I can restore the window back again but it is very annoying and I am losing matches because of it.I have all the latest drivers installed.

hmm.. interesting.. I have never played any FIFA games.. I have a hunch that you are using Alt+Space+N key combinations which is causing the window to be minimized.

No no...I'm not even touching the keyboard.I have a Logitech RumblePad F510 and I use that for playing FIFA.And I've been playing FIFA for almost 5 years now and this is the first time something like this is happening.I've been playing the new FIFA 12 since it has launched & this problem has started since a few days

As you can see in my first post I said that I'm losing matches and obviously I'm losing online matches because game disconnects on minimizing and so obviously I have a genuine copy

sometimes the key combo conflicts with the joypad keys. check that

like the keyboard keys to pass or shoot might be the escape key on the joypad. or vice versa

Could be driver issues, of the GPU.

Nah nothing like that

Could be driver issues, of the GPU.

Checked with various versions of drivers,still no solution

Well since no one has said this yet, Update using any latest patch released. Are there any unnecessary programs running in background? Any other game has this problem during online matches?

-Try changing screen resolutions?
-Don't run any other app while gaming?
-Scan for worms?
-Try playing from a keyboard and check if the same thing happens?
-Try the joypad or whatever you call on an alternate PC with the same game?

Yeah I's:evil: in talk with their support team but they are not really very helpful

Ask for help in Fifa forums?
That'll be the best thing to do imo.

LOL, if someone over there is an American the game developers can be sued for mental harassment, reduction in pleasure and any god damn reason.

(Yeah, Americans will sue for almost anything, an old grandma sued apple for a billion or was it million bucks coz she banged her nose on their glass walls, she couldn't see it)

And the most amazing fact is many of them even win those lawsuits and get a load of money.:mrgreen:

I have Mcafee Security Centre installed and it is set to update automatically but I think it has nothing to do with the problem as I have tried playing the game with Mcafee turned off and the problem occurs

An american burglar sued the house owner for $500,000 because he was trapped in the house for 8 days and there wasn't any food or water.
Surprisingly, he won the claim!
