hmm, just tried to do this on my Win98 box and I can't get it to run in
a window either, although I remember doing this often enough under
win95.
Sounds like you have a problem as I have no problems switching between
Q2 (or any other Direct-x game for that matter) and the desktop and back
again. I have a similar setup to you also, as I have a Millenium G200
and the original Diamond Monster. I do remember this being a BIG problem
in the early days of direct-x.
1600x1200 eh?? what size monitor you running? a 21"?
