This issue happens in all BG 1 / BG 2 / Icewind Dale / icewind Dale 2.
As for those who said that its something that happens with newer OS, That's actually false. I used to play Icewind Dale on a Acer Aspire One with windows 7 home prem. on it and it did not required to be windowed after every time I tried to create a new game. Though there where other issue (Casting Glyph of warding would crash the game).
Solution above worked fine. Thanks :D

Hey, wondering how to run BG II in windowed mode. There is no video options menu as the above post describes. Any help would be appreciated

I had the same problem.
I don't know if this helps you, but in my case I added Baldur's Gate folder to exceptions in my firewall software, turned on access to private and public networks for Baldur's Gate in windows firewall settings, set the Baldur's Gate to run it as an administrator, and disabled visual themes and desktop composition on the shortcut's properties window in the compatibility tab. Now Multiplayer starts with a slight pause but it starts in full screen.
