I'm still usung win 7
Clearly I'm don't something wrong. I get a black screen with my SPWW2 window on top, the game window is the same small size.
The point of the program is to eliminate windowed borders when the game is running, thus essentially the game is run on windowed mode but with the borders eliminated you get a "somewhat" full screen experience.

So yes, if you see the black screen with a game "window", you're doing it right. So hopefully no more twisted and broken colors, right?

Now the problem is the window being too small. As others have suggested, you must increase the "windowed" game size on the GameOptions.exe , that is the program before you launch the main game.

As Andy said, if your monitor is the unique style 4:3 aspect ratio (not widescreen) you're bound for some problems, like the preset windowed sizes leaving lots of unused screen space thus smaller windowed size compared to actual screen size.
