    Can't play MW2 windowed.

    Hey all,

    I can't seem to launch AiW in windowed mode, I changed the config to always be in windowed mode but it just remains black and then stops responding, I've also tried just pressing alt+enter in the main menu, but, same results.

    Sorry if this is in the wrong section but I don't think there's a support forum for AiW :'D

    Thanks in advance.

    Please close I'll post it in the Modern Warfare 2 help section...
    /facepalm

    Trying re extracting or updating it. Then it might work. Or try updating your graphics card.

    It's most likely that your graphics card may not be able to handle the power to render both the desktop and the game at the same time, so I wouldn't suggest using Windowed Mode.

    Try changing your desktop to a minimal theme where there's lower graphics-usage and try running aIW in windowed mode again (Also, initiate your console and type in: 'r_noborder 1' in order to get rid of the application's borders).
