I was finally able to get fullscreen windowed mode enabled without a crash by doing the configuration on the title screen before hitting "start" to enter character selection. At least if you crash out from there, it's not quite as frustrating as crashing from within the game after probably bashing past the 1017 error for entirely too long.
