There is no way through the operation of the game itself to get it in a windowed mode. You should be able to run the game in one of those "Virtual" window programs, where each window acts as a self contained pc running on your pc.

And it's easy to minimize the game, as you would a normal window. Just clik on the uppermost icon on the right in the main screen...

Dual monitors rule.

Except for the fact that my other monitor recently scrunched down to almost a tiny vertical line, I would have SE4 up fullscreen on the right hand side, with this forum, my chat windows, and all the other stuff I have up on the left monitor.

Just got my dual monitor set up a couple of weeks ago, and I love it!

Being able to play SEIV and have other stuff up on the other monitor rules!
