Playing Football Manager while surfing the web?

I want to holiday on Football Manager while I'm on the internet.

I do this sometimes.

I have Firefox and Winamp open while playing all the time. I try to keep the amount of tabs open lower than when I'm just surfing though.

Play it in windows mode? Easy to control game, while surfing.. Or even playing other games meanwhile!

How do you do it?

Preferences>Display and Sound and then select windowed mode

Thanks! You're a hero! FINALLY figured it out!

I do this, but I have two monitors, so it's easy.

Doesn't ALT + TAB work. It does for me.

Same, look at a movie/series while playing fm.

If you're on mac, it's cmd-f. I hope there are some mac users out there reading my infinite mac wisdom.

Mac < Windows. Point is null and void i'm afraid

OR jsut press the WINDOWS button to minimize it. (discovered this accidently)

That must be cool! i want two monitors

I am sorry even as a PC user! Mac's are mazing and if i could afford one that would be my investment!

Windowed mode is perfect.

I use the -windowed -small_Screen thing to get to windowed mode because the option in preferences is greyed out. I dont surf though I normally have winamp going when I am playing FM.

I watch movies/series, listen to music at the same time. Love 2 screens.

To summarise a quote I found (might have been an ad)

"Mac. The ultimate PC upgrade".

I do this all the time, especially when I hit "Continue" and the game needs to load something. I've usually got a browser and iTunes open without much issue.

I've played windowed since like Fm06 or 07

How do you do this? I have 2 monitors but don't know how to do it. Am on Windows XP if that makes a difference.

It doesn't. You do need a graphics card that supports 2 monitors though.

I just Alt+Tab works perfectly for me.

I didn't mean to start conversion. lol

I have the same problem. I don't know why it's greyed out for me, so when I use that -windowed -small_Screen I need to scroll attributes. That annoys me.
