Alt + Tab should work. Then again, you could always just try the Windows key...  :roll:

already did that but it won't minmize the game. I can only exit out by alt +f4 which ends the entire program then I have to load it again.

Ctrl+Alt+Del
If that doesn't take you straight to the desktop then click on a program and click switch to.
If your on vista, Ctrl+Alt+Esc
Also, if you can press the windows button, the start bar comes up right? Next to that should be a button that takes you straight to the desktop. If there isn't, then right click on the bar at the bottom of the page, click properties, and check the box saying Show quick launch then it should come up.

Or just "Windows" + "D"

In case that didn't work either:
 - Ensure that there are at least two user accounts
 - Ensure that quick user switching is on
 - Press "Windows" + "L"
 - Login to the other user account

Not an elegant solution, but it gets the job done, you can browse the internet on the other account. You can try going straight back to the account where FF8 is running, but it might just reenable the FF8 - I do believe that the window will be shown if it has the "Always on top" property turned on, though.
