Games in Windows.

[(Shovel)]

As in, "Windowed boxes".

Just wondering, seeing as I've dusted off a lot of games lately whether you can get a program, or just force them, to run inside a window?

I'm talking about games like Rollercoaster Tycoon which I love, but it would be nice to be able to play it in a box and chat in IRC or the forums at the same time?

Obviously I don't intend to play FPS games like this!

Is there any program or method of getting this?

ive found in some cases, pressing ALT-ENTER drops some games to a window.

You never know .....

some games though when they lose focus, stop working until you return focus to them. of course this might not be a problem, but I presumed that was your point. so you can leave your sim whatever game on for ages and have a chat at the same time.
