Shift-Tab InGame menu won't open properly. :(

[Juul Cat]

When I'm in a game and I want to use the Steam menu thing it flickers and closes the second after. I only can open it if I am not in pause and even then it wont work sometimes and i have to spam it. Also, in the Add-ons menu, I rarely can open the browse and i have to spam it until it randomly works. If anyone knows why this is happening or if it is happening to you please tell me.

Yeah, I'm trying to find the problem too. This is really starting to piss me off.

[Tonez]

I've updated card drivers, changed resolutions, change aspect ratio and they did not provide any results.....gona look at official forums now

[Father Smashmas]

[randy lahey]

Having the same problem here.

[Rocket Salesman]

Same problem..All these issues with the new update are annoying. I still can't even play because of the server crashing glitch

[FRANKIE VEGAS]

Having the same problem. It's pretty annoying having to tab out every time I get a message :(.

Sorry, just did a google search on my problem and noticed I'm posting in the L4D2 forums. I'm having the exact same problem except it's in Dota 2.

So it's happening in other games too not just L4D2. That is odd.

I'm getting it as well. I'm guessing it's the result of a lesser graphics card though.

Same problem here. Using a macbook air with hd3000 graphics card.

[Scar Face]

Same problem here on GeForce GT630M

[argh!]

Yes, totally agree with all of you guys. Why Valve, WHY?! the game was perfect before the ♥♥♥♥♥♥ workshop update :(

since there's steam workshop , I could not play on public servers with stable ping. My piing is always up and down, from 50 to 2000 .. especially when i press shift + tab, ping suddenly rise. 3 minutes later the ping down to normal again .. but when i press shift + tab and chat with friends, ping ride back to the wild .. cmon,steam, please make update to solve this problem..

1. When you first load up Left 4 Dead, allow the game to sit for a few minutes (at least 30 seconds) with out opening the steam overlay.
2. Refrain from using the in-game web browser in graphic intense situations (hordes, lots of blood)
3. Don't click rapidly when in steam overlay mode
