======
STEP 1 - open the user directory
======
There is a link in the install directory called My Egoboo Stuff double click on this to open the directory.
If this does not work, right click on the link and choose "Properties". Then paste %AppData%\egoboo into the field marked "Target". Then double click on the link
======
STEP 2 - edit the setup.txt in the user directory
======
open up the setup.txt file in this directory and change [FULLSCREEN] : "TRUE" to [FULLSCREEN] : "FALSE".
======
STEP 3 - try to start egoboo again
