I'm not entirely sure how to get these games to run in a window or without sound, would someone be able to enlighten me as to how to do this
EDIT: Sorry I accidentally hit post before I flagged this as a question, and I don't know how to change it from here...

You can't change it once you have posted. As for windowed modes check out this thread:

Not sure about the sound though I would assume you would have sound options in a menu or something.
