Edit the config.ini file in the Ace of Spades directory folder. Open it in notepad and set "windowed" from 0 to 1.
To a Physicist, white and black is the presence and absence of color.
To a Fine Artist, white and black are just shades and tints of color.
To a Painter, any paint that you could get into a can is a color.
THIS color, on the other hand, is #b4d455.

It's usually under C:\Ace of Spades.

To get there quick (if you don't know how), go to Run, and type in "C:\Ace of Spades".

Late edit.

To get there quick (if you don't know how), go to Run, and type in "C:\Ace of Spades".


EDIT: If you really can't find Run..., then you could open Internet Explorer and type in "C:\Ace of Spades" in the address bar. You could also type in "C:\Ace of Spades\config.ini" in the address bar to open it if you somehow can't find the file. If it doesn't open automatically, look at the bottom of the screen. It should say something like "Do you want to open or save 'config.ini'".

I have to go to sleep. Hopefully someone else is there to help you.
