Brian,

Hmm... the dialog box should be displayed any time the depth changes.  I 
would have thought that DirectX apps running in fullscreen wouldn't 
cause the WM_DISPLAYCHANGE message to be sent if they change the display 
depth.  I wonder if they change it then change it right back, otherwise 
the dialog box should still be waiting for you if you hit the Windows 
key (or some other key combo) to switch the focus back to your Windows 
desktop.  Have you tried that before?  Let me know if you do and you are 
able to see the dialog box.
