Hey guys,
I recently tried to run TF2 in windowed mode, now whenever I go to start the game and it goes through the opening sequences it crashed
Any help at all would be great. Thanks.

I run TF2 with 2 gigs of RAM and a ATI Radeon X1950X video card and I can only play maximized with background programs shut off in order to have 40+ FPS and 50-100ms ping on the PA servers.
So, it's MORE taxing for a computer to run a game windowed?
I wanna see their faces turn to backs of heads and slowly get smaller
That might not be the exact reason, but it is harder when it's windowed.
I wonder...

nothing is being rendered while in windowed mode when you have the program selected.
things run better in windowed mode usually because: you're playing with it at a lower resolution, because you want it in a window.
if i'm playing a game windowed i'm shoving it down to, you know, half the size of my monitor, most likely. that's 1/2 the amount of pixels that need to be onscreen.
it's fairly obvious.
most of all, most of all
someone said true love was dead
but i'm bound to fall
bound to fall for you
oh what can i do
Otherwise, I think I would have to reinstall the game.
That's what I had assumed, but, I came into this thread and it changed what I thought I knew.

Is there anyway I can fix my TF2?
I think I might just reinstall it.
thanks splash
