Hi all,

I'm not sure if this question should really go into this forum or not, so I appologize if it should be elsewhere. Now on to the question...

As we all know, Civ4 plays in full-screen. Is there any setting that allows it to NOT be full-screen, such that it can be minimized to the taskbar, like any other program? I discovered that another game of mine (Age of Mythology) has a setting wherein it could be played in non-full-screen mode, thus allowing me to instant message my friends while playing, which can't be done if the game is full-screen. So, anybody know if Civ4 has such a setting?

Thanks!

Main Menu --> Advanced --> Options --> Graphics --> Full Screen box unchecked :rolleyes: Or press the start bar button, it minimises Civ to the tray and opens the start menu :D !

Yep...so the obvious follow-up question is: how did I miss that?!?! :crazyeye:

Thank you Nick!
