Full Version: Video Goes Full Screen...

I don't know why, but sometimes on my computer, when I play a music video, the video suddenly goes full screen, and I can't press escape to get out of it, so I end up hibernating my computer and then turning it back on. It's especially annoying when I'm trying to view a person's myspace, and they have a video on it, so right away, the video starts playing, and then I have to go through the trouble of hibernating. So this happens occasionally on my computer, though for some reason, this is permanent on my uncle's computer. I don't know how to fix it.

What program do you use to watch video files?

With Windows Media Player, use alt+Enter to exit full screen mode.

you can always use Alt- tab to switch between programs, even fullscreen ones.

Err, okay, Justin, I will try that if I come across another video that goes full screen. And umm. I usually watch videos on launch. Uhh. And those videos that tons of people have on their myspace. I don't know what program it is. T_T

Those are mostly played with Windows Media Player, so alt+Enter and you should be fine.

Delete it and re-install.

you need to have other programs open for the alt-tab method to work.
