Im looking at playing a succesion game and I dont have two computers(operational computers) at home. I have XP on a 1.7 ghz maching with nvida geforce 2mmx card.

My questions is how can i play civ 3 in a window so i can make comments without exiting the game competely? Im sure this has been asked before and thanks for the answers.

I load up all the programs I want to run in the background, like word and photo editor before starting Civ.

Once Civ is running you can switch between them using ALT-TAB

I use notepad instead of MSWord. It doesn't distort my :), ;), and :aargh:s. :D
