game minimizes while playing

While playing Halo or Battlefield 2 the game will minimize for no reason. I know I'm not hitting the windows key so thats not it. The game keeps playing I just have to click on the minimized tab to bring it back up again.

could it be my screen saver?

Thanks for any advise.

Not a screen saver, that wouldn't fire up in a game.

Pay attention to what you're doing in the game when it happens. It could be a wierd keymap issue. And make sure that you disable your mouse button "application switch" if you have a Logitech. That can cause nightmares.
