When minimizing and restoring DirectDraw applications I use ShowWindow(ghWnd, SW_MINIMIZE) and ShowWindow(ghWnd, SW_RESTORE), and in my main game loop I have the following: while (lpdd->TestCooperativeLevel() != DD_OK) { WaitMessage(); MessageLoop(); // processes windows messages } Is this right? Any advice? P.S.: Thanks to Next Bill Gates.

Best wishes, Ivan.
