this thread is kinda old but i am going to post this anyway..... (Not sure if you can get around it yet or not i installing sf now so i came in this section)
if u need to get around the alt+tab thing i have a special mouse that has an application switcher built in.... not sure if it will work but if it does i will edit this post later today.
i don't know if it will work because i can't even start the game lol i press play now and it makes the screen black and it just stays like that......
but yeah what the app. switcher does is opens a small menu i can scroll through in the corner and i can slect an app. and it opens on top of what is already running.
