Hi,

I search to play at Prince of Persia Original in windowed mode, i don't know how to do that.

Perhaps an option in PoP ?

Thanks

If you think about it, it cannot be in game.

You can switch between fullscreen and windowed mode using the standard DOSBox shortcut Ctrl-Enter.

If you want something more persistent, there's currently no graphic interface to set PlayOnLinux's DOSBox support options, so you have to edit

~/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/PrinceOfPersia1/playonlinux_dos.cfg

to add a

sdl_fullscreen="false"

Or altenatively (but that's not really simpler), Configure button > (select virtual drive) > Miscellaneous tab > Open a shell in this virtual drive, and type

POL_Config_DosPrefixWrite "sdl_fullscreen" "false"
