Minimizing Repeatedly on Older Titles
Hi I am not sure if this is the the right place to ask but I can't ignore this problem any longer, I bought the Ultimate Collection in order to play all of the older Command and Conquer titles on my ...

Very peculiar issue... I'd heard of such problems on RA2, but never on C&C/RA1, especially with the patches we got now. What kind of laptop is this, specifically?
Does enabling or disabling CnC-DDraw in the configuration tool of C&C95 (CCConfig.exe, in the game folder) make any difference? You mentioned windowed mode... did you try that in C&C95 too? It's one of the extras added by the CnC-DDraw graphics fix. And if so, what exactly did that do when you tried it?
Sorry for the late reply I run an Acer Aspire V3 772G-9643 Updated from Windows 8 to 10, as for the suggested settings they minimize on the main menu still so no luck there.
As for Windowed the game either loads up black screen with no audio or just minimizes and stays in the task bar not even attempting to maximize if you click it.
The only older game I have gotten to run is TS with the Dawn of the Tiberian age Launcher so far.
It doesn't appear to have made a difference compared to normal... I tried opening some of them about 15 minutes before I posted this.
RA didn't minimize four of five times launching it, TD three of five, but RA2 one of five, Renegade was only one that didn't work out of tests and just kept minimizing itself, more interesting though is for the ones that did work my desktop and any open windows would flash randomly every once in a while but wouldn't effect the game and I could also alt-tab out and back into them as well.
Honestly it just seems random I tried watching what programs came up and how much cpu/disk with no difference in any of the attempts.
Thank you for trying to help me with this I know it must be annoying.
