Windows XP ALT-TAB Issue
When running DF:BHD under WindowsXP, you may experience problems task switching (i.e. using ALT+TAB) if you have set your game resolution and bitdepth to the same settings as your desktop. You are advised to either choose a different resolution in the game Options menu, or change your desktop resolution before running the game. Alternatively you may choose to run the game at a different bitdepth setting to your Windows desktop. We do however recommend that you run the game with the bitdepth set to 32 bit, and therefore suggest you switch your desktop to 16 bit color. If you don't plan on task switching in the game, then these measures are not necessary

Copied right from the readme.txt file in your BHD folder:D

SOmetimes that doesn't work but if you continue to alter between your color settings and your desktop size in comparison to the game resolution you will find the right combo to let you alt-tab the other alternative is to hit your windows key, this seems to work on any game that has trouble alt-tabbing...... Peace
