No. It's impossible. There are no tutorials on it and it's really hard apparantly.

you confuse me, you tell me that its impossible, then you say that its really hard therefore pointing out that its possible. Then au5t3n5 or whatever your goddamn name is says you can... wtf?

oh, thats easy!
if you have halo ce, open the folder!
scroll all the way down and you should see a program that reads "windowed mode".

copy that, then open halp pc ver folder!
paste!
then right click it and edit!
change "Haloce.exe" to "halo.exe"
!! or maybe halopc.exe....

Ok, your a PC kid now right?
Create a shortcut, right click it, hit properties, at the END of the target, AFTER the ", type { -window } without the {}'s

Yeah so this "QUETZALCOATL " dude that doesn't know a thing about grammar or spelling has been the only one here to help.

QUETZALCOATL didn't even help, he just pointed out that i didn't have CE and that he didn't know that theres an actual halo CE section in these forums.
