lol in the halo shortcut, right click it and select properties.
In the target line, it should say this..

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo\halo.exe" -console -window
Console will let you use ingame commands for servers and such, and window will force it to use a window.

I know I replied here already don't give me a hard time.

I use window, but I end up joining most of my games through xfire anyway so it would just go full screen. But I'm loving window, especially now that I figured out how to keep my mouse from going outside of it  ::)


Thank you Tanger!

Click Tools > Options then click on the "Games" tab. Then you can find Halo and where it says "Extra Command Line Parameters" add in the "-window".

I would do what Mxy does, but the mouse goes out of the Halo screen :)

Window, coz i still dont know the sound of people's voices on vent ;D

The window also makes me lag less, so im happy
