And any time I open the window. I seem to be able to remedy it by opening a Classic build of the 1.7.0. It also minimizes, yet can be opened.And then I can open the modern build fine until the next time I close it.
I normally use the modern build of 1.7.1. And the log shows nothing out of the ordinary.

Myth 2 Minimizes at start
Re: Myth 2 Minimizes at start
I haven't heard of this problem before so I don't know the solution, but let me ask some questions:
-Does this happen on earlier builds like 1.7.0 or 1.6?
-Does anything happen if you press alt-f11 while myth is minimized but selected (i.e. highlighted in the taskbar)?
-What video card do you have, and are the drivers fully up to date?
-Is your OS fully up to date (SP3?)
-Are you using some external programs which manage windows or themes?

Re: Myth 2 Minimizes at start
alt-f11 does nothing, and I haven't tried using a build earlier than the 1.7. I do remember it happening specifically to the modern build of 1.7 before the beta, however.
I don't know what video card I have, since this computer is a hand-me-down of a family member and they sometimes upgrade to different cards and such. And I am fairly sure I am not using a fully upgraded Windows XP.
And no, I was not using another program to manage anything.

Click Start, point to Programs, point to Accessories, point to System Tools, and then click System Information.
Try to get the operating system, processor, memory, video card.
