I would like to operate more than one task, but video games are always full screen. Is there a way to minimize the screen so i can do other things while playing.

    go to your desktop, right click, go to properties, click the settings tab, change the screen resolution to which ever works best for you

    go to the display settings of the game that you are playing and then go find the “windowed mode” in the video settings and after that the screen should be smaller. And if it doesn’t work change the resolution to the lowest possible resolution (the 800×640 i think)

    on your desktop, find the shortcut to the game. or make one if there is none. right click the desktop shortcut of the game. click properties.
    in the Shortcut tab, there’s a white box that’s called Target. at the very end of the text in this box, don’t delete any of the text and write this:
    -w.

    … with the dot, as far as i recall.
    then it should play in a window next time you play, and you can multitask.
