RRT2 in XP Unread post

Hi,

I'm just learning RRT2, can anyone tell me how to open the game in a small window in XP so that I can have the manual and/or strategy guide open at the same time.

I tried <Properties/Compatibilities> and changed around some settings since it is an older game, didn't help. Also went to <Properties/Settings> and changes screen resolution like I was told, still nothing!

Printing them is the next best thing, I guess?

Thank you,

b

The hotkey to switch between Full-screen and windowed mode is F4, but I think you already know about that one :-) .

The screen resolution must be set to more than 1024x768.

Furthermore, the Color Depth (set in Display Properties) must be set to 16-bit or 8-bit. It does not work in 32-bit.

Hope this helps :-)
