Hello,
Recently I bought Acer QG24Y monitor and when I play COD:MW2 the screen flashes black during alt+tab and changing system volume from the multimedia keys on my keyboards. Went in the game to change the game screen mode, but out of the 3 options for fullscreen modes I don't see any difference and the problem persists. When I selected WINDOW mode is the only difference.
The black screen comes twice - when the volume pop up window appears and when it fades.

    Hi @Ashckroft It could be a connection type problem, this can happen when Display Port is used, is this the connection you are using?

    All the best.

    Alt Tab while in a game usually switches to the desktop, which forces a screen refresh with resolution change. A short blank screen is normal any time you change resolution.
