Hi, I'm currently having a problem with my GTX 570 or so it seems. The problem I have is when playing games for a prolonged period of time(dota 2, Battlefield 4, bioshock infinite).My game freezes for a bit(second or so) than minimizes so I'll be at my desktop but the game is still open I'll just be at my desktop but I Can't maximize the game anymore. When the game freezes then minimizes I can also see the In-Game cursor and hear the In-Game audio. I've tried reinstalling the drivers, updating all my drivers to the most current version, formatting my PC completely and installing everything again only to come to the same problem.

My current specs(if this helps) are
Core i5-750 2.66Ghz(stock)
8GB of DDR3 G.skill RAM 1600mhz(stock)
Corsair 750 Watt PSU
GTX 570(not overclocked)
1 terabyte HDD

Well I highly doubt that happening it is possible. I just tried going through a few games and pressing the windows key or esc. The game minimizes but I am able to maximize it fine without a problem. The weird thing is when it minimizes on its own I have the in game cursor as my windows cursor on the desktop and also the audio is still playing from the desktop.
