Exclusive fullscreen mode is NOT the same thing as windowed fullscreen.

Windowed mode still renders the desktop and all the windows you might have open which will get you about 5fps less than exclusive mode. Not to mention that neither SLI nor Crossfire work in windowed mode.

So no, that's not what windowed mode is for. When will people stop giving excuses for an unhandled exception in SE's code?
