First of all him im new to the forums and to sc. I just got sc 2 a few hours ago. I download it yesterday and buy via internet today. So everything started good, no prob but after a few minutes the games automatically minimize, which cause me to lag... this not only happens onces it happens constantly, what is wrong...

Do you have any programs such as an instant messenger or firewall programs running? Sometimes they give you a notification that overrides your full screen preferences. You'll need to disable this in user preferences in the Control Panel, or you'll need to turn these programs off while playing. Also try to avoid hitting Alt + Tab.
Well, the first time it happened i had msn on so i turned off then i tried again and the prob continued, I will try to close the antivir and the will se the firewall thingy hope it works thanks
