That\'s normally due to an issue with sound.

Yes, in this release (.13) having sound turned off has some issues, one of them, a crash whenever the window screen is minimized.

Workarounds:
1) Enable sound
2) Play fullscreen so you don\'t commit the \"error\" of minimizing the window

Resolution:
Since few days after the .13 release, AryHann corrected the issue that was causing the crash. As soon as the update goes out \"officially\" everyone will have this problem solved. You\'ve also the way of using CVS to compile the code and get it working but, really, the solution consists in an update acting as a bugfix for this issue. I think it\'s planned, so you\'ll have to wait less than usual ;)

Normally I press ALT+Tab it crashes. But I found that if you press the Windows Key, it doesn\'t. Hoorah for me \\O/!

Yes, it\'s my fault ;)
But I did my duties and I fixed the issue asap :-)

Well, if you want to be able to switch screens, you can just not play in fullscreen, but drag the screen a bit larger until it covers almost you rentire screen. You will have no crashes.
