Hi. I'd like to know if theres a way to play DPL on window mode, like not full screen and stuff, 'cause my processor overheats playing on full screen since it's an on-board video card. I looked over, but didn't find anything, if theres a post on it I'm sorry.

There's a software that you can run any fullscreen program in windowed mode. I think it's RivaTuner, but I'm not sure.

right click on the exe and click properties and compatibility, there should be an option there to run it in windowed mode

Well I used 3D Ripper DX

Why I use that program?
1. DXWND doesn't work for Driver Parallel Lines
2. RivaTuner didn't work for me either

If you're desperate, ask me again for the link, I am to lazy right now to find the propper link :P

Yep,both the magic and the peanut butter combined will make the game run at 60 FPS at max settings,with AA and 1280X1024 resolution!

Why would someone want to run it in a window? (please do not insult my lack of computer knowledge)

reminds me of being forced to run GTA2 in a window.... I had to make an entire patch from scratch to get it working too...
