    Active windows often become inactive suddenly, and back again


    I'm using Windows 7 64bit, I got a problem since about 3 days lately, my active windows regularly switched to inactive and then back to active again in a view seconds without I have to do anything. It's really annoying, especially when I play a game
    I know and understand what "show desktop" button is, and that's not the problem.
    Help me, please. Thank you for any advice, I really need it.

Active window becomes inactive

Anytime I have a window open, be it Firefox, Word, Start Menu, etc., this will happen every 30 seconds or so. It started happening a few days ago, seemingly out of nowhere. Any thoughts on what may be causing this problem?
I want to edit a theme to make the inactive window of a lighter color compared to the active one. What do I need to change in WSB? Also, where is the window title text color located exactly? I want to change it to white.
A strange problem...sometimes while in an active program or internet window the window will disappear suddenly and my desktop will appear. When this happens a slight movement of my mouse will return the window I was in. Does something need tweaking??? thanks for your help
