Running applications in a seperate window....

Hello all,

I was wondering if any of you have any suggestions of software which will allow me to run applications (such as games) in a seperate window. I have a few games which don't give me the option of running in windowed mode.

Connectix's (or Microsoft's) Virtual PC would be extremely ideal but seen as I need an online connection (and I can't get one to the 'virtual' pc - the idea is not viable).

So to sum things up, i'm in search of a piece of software which will run applications in a window.

Picture attached if your not sure what I mean.

Thanks....

a lot of games it's just a matter of going into options and unchecking the "full screen" mode thing...but specifically what games do you speak of?

eck...yeah, i played an online RPG like that a while ago that was full screen...i never could figure out how to make it smaller. you might try right clicking the program and going to the compatibility tab...playing at a different resolution may do what you want. keep us posted as to what you figure out.
