Windowed Mode Won't Work ~ :(

[Iecerint]

So, I've played through all of Tutu and most of BG2 at 1280x800, which is my monitor resolution, but I've found that the windowed setting does not work. I've tried changing resolutions, editing baldur.ini away from Fullscreen=0 (no effect), using the built-in Configure GUI and in-game Graphics tab, and the Alt+Enter keystroke, but nothing has any effect whatsoever.

 

What works works perfectly (i.e. no complaints with the fullscreen mode), but the windowed option would be nice.

 

Apologies if this is actually very simple.

You can't run windowed mode with the same resolution as your screen, you can only use a smaller resolution (if your screen is 1280x800, you can try 1250x700 windowed).

Ah, I see. It goes to an ugly, messed-up Fullscreen and I have to manually switch over to Windowed from there, but it works. Thanks.

 

Is there a way to keep it playing in the background? Windowed mode without that is pretty similar to fullscreen and alt+tab.

I don't think so.
