Impressive, considering you wrote 246 words in only one paragraph without any punctuation marks. The problem may be easy to solve, but the post is very hard to read.

this is a known bug on certain systems (i'm able to confirm it everytime using OoT and MQ,)

this is becoz you've loaded a quicksave while in fullscreen

to work around this, when exiting a rom hit F12 to end emulation, then ALT+F4 to close PJ64, this will force it to unlock the GDI and Display driver (for some reason loading a qsave in fullscreen causes PJ64 to lock the Driver in fullscreen mode with certain nvidia hardware)

another way around this is to load a save state while in windowed mode, you'll be able to still switch back and forth to fullscreen and back to windowed mode if you load it in a window.

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but searching only brought me this one. I have the same problem, using Majora's Mask, Djipi's Real Textures, Project64 1.7 beta (I've already posted there, but it's not a 1.7 related issue anyway) and Rice Video.

F12 didn't work for me, has the same effect as alt+enter/trying to exit full screen, it crashes the emulator, while locked in fullscreen. Annoying thing is, even the "Always on Top" Task Manager can't be in view.

My workaround was to close everything except the emulator and Task Manager, and have Project64.exe highlighted and if I ever wanted to exit full screen, I'd alt+tab to Task Manager and press alt+e then enter to force quit project64.

It's a bitch, is there still no fix for this?

Thanks.

EDIT: Turns out it IS a PJ64 1.7 issue, I'll continue the discussion in their forums.

This problem ONLY happens to me with Rice Video. Glide64 and Jabo never have this problem...for me, anyway.
