Alt Tabbing Causes Game to Black Screen

I have no issues tabbing in and out of league EXCEPT when it comes to TFT. If I alt tab to tell pandora I am still listenting, clicking back to league/tft just gives me a black screen. I have to totally kill the client and re start. Sometimes I get a black screen again, sometimes it loads the game properly. Anyone else having this issue/know a fix or am I the only one? Mildly lame :/

I echo this issue, I believe it's specific for low spec machines OR it has something to do with resolution. Out of curiosity, can I ask your specs (processor and graphics) and your screen resolution? The sound keeps coming and you can see the mouse but your screen is black after you alt+tab, correct?

Yes, I do see the mouse which I can move, sound is there also.. Just like you describe Eldeazar

Ugg, had a post typed and accidentally killed stuff. amd phenom 2 quad core 3.2 ghz 32gb ddr 2 ram nvidia gtx1060sc 6gb ddr5 windows 7 samsung ssd hard drive

I am assuming it has more to do w/ resolution as I use a custom res due to playing on a "tv" so it is a bit wonky. I want to say something like 1850x1012. Not a generic res that the game pre sets. Can't imagine my machine, though old, would be considered low spec. I will have to check resolution when i get home. i will try windowed mode for tft only i guess..
