Windows mode seems to be a big no-no

[Culture Shock]

I changed my .ini to allow windows mode and mouse scrolling in windows mode. When I start a game though, I can't get my units to move. I can only get the little white pathing line to go in certain directions (left and up, generally between the 8 and 2 positions on a clock). I can't get the pathing line to go in any other direction other than that (not due to terrain, there was grassland all around), and the unit won't actually move in ANY direction. Furthermore, after trying this for about 10 seconds the game crashes and my computer reboots. This is my first instance of a game crash. I just went through this 4 times in a row. This sucks. Looks like full-screen it is.

That's odd. Windowed is working for me fine. On two computers.

One thing to do is make sure your desktop is set to 32 bit color.

FWIW, windowed works sweet on my machine.
