Does anyone know why my games minimize back to the desktop after about 10 minutes play?

I'm using Windows 7 and it only seems to happen in certain games and has only recently started happening.

You say it's a recent change in behaviour. What's changed recently? Have you installed any new hardware? Have you updated drivers? Etc. We need more information. – ChrisF May 30 '11 at 18:01
its a brand new rock xtreame 840. its got an intel core 2 extreme x9100 2x 3.06 processor and running two 1gb nvidia graphics card in SLI. Its brand new and there has been no issues except that this problem has just started. ive installed a new printer, is it possible that the drivers for that are causing this problem?? – jay May 30 '11 at 21:17
