How to make form visible?

Question

See more:

I have a windows form Form1. During the load of Form1 I am displaying form in maximized state. There is a condition within Form1 and if that is satisfied another form Form2 should be visible simumtaneously but Form2 should be in front and Form1 should be behind that. I cannot use showdialog() as there are code after showing Form2 which needs to be executed. I am using .BringToFront() but its not working for me. I cannot use Topmost=true;
as it now remains on top so If now I try to open any Form3 it opens but remains in background.
Can any1 help me with a better approach?
