This article was previously published under Q184769 SUMMARY
If another program minimizes Outwars while you are playing with other
players, you must switch back to the game within two minutes. If you do
not switch back to the game within two minutes, you are disconnected
from the game. This is a standard function of DirectPlay.
MORE INFORMATION
In most Outwars screens, you cannot switch from an Outwars multiplayer
game to another program by pressing ALT+TAB. In the Outwars chat
window, you can press ALT+TAB to switch to another program, but
doing so may cause the game to stop responding (hang).
