How do you minimise FS2002? If you wish to use another application while it's running try hitting Alt + Tab.

(can u see image?)

No. Make sure it's in the right format & resolution before uploading. You can resize it if necessary & save in JPG format with IrfanView. Also make sure you use the exact file name of the image in the path.

Open the image in IrfanView or M$ Paint & click File/Save As. Select the JPG (JPEG) Option & save it under a suitable name. That's it.

OK. Glad you figured that out. Now back to your original question.

First I need some more info. Why do you wish to minimise FS2002 & which method do you use?

To bring up the menu bar from Full Screen mode hit Alt. To minimise the sim hit Alt + Tab. Fire up FS2002 & try that. Tell me if you still have the same problem.
