Is there any way to keep the events ticking over? Cheers. n/a

That's 'commercial' - for games you're going to sell and make a profit out of. You don't have to pay anything if you plan to make a freeware game using it. It is a simple problem...with a simple solution, if you have MMF. Go to the game properties, select 'Run-time' and check 'Do not stop samples when application loses focus'. n/a

The program just seems to pause. Thanks for the info on the system object though - ill get it now. Edit: No, the system tray extension doesn't seem to do what I need, so I'm back to square one.
