How does one window Yuri's Revenge?

So previously, Yuri's Revenge was able to run just fine after I added the DDWrapper. However, then I wanted to fix that when I alt tab out, I want to be able to alt tab back in without it going to hell.. Anyhoos... I was able to fix this with the base game RA2, but it is not letting me do this for the expansion. Now, when I run Yuri's Revenge, I can hear the sound, but instead of running the actual game, I see a cornered part of my desktop. After going through all the settings in the files multiple times, I have given up and need help. 

Currently, all the .exe file's compatibilities are "reduced color mode -- 16-bit" and "run this program as administrator" for the game.exe file and the gamemd.exe file. The Ra2.exe and RA2MD.exe also are those. They're all running compatibility mode for Windows XP SP2. 

The RA2MD.INI file says 

[Intro]
Play=no

[Options]
GameSpeed=4
Difficulty=1
ScrollMethod=0
ScrollRate=3
AutoScroll=yes
DetailLevel=2
SidebarCameoText=yes
UnitActionLines=yes
ShowHidden=no
ToolTips=yes

[Video]
AllowHiResModes=yes
AllowVRAMSidebar=no
VideoBackBuffer=no
ScreenWidth=1920
ScreenHeight=1000
StretchMovies=no

[Audio]
SoundVolume=0.700000
VoiceVolume=1.000000
ScoreVolume=0.500000
IsScoreRepeat=no
IsScoreShuffle=no
SoundLatency=9
InGameMusic=yes

[Network]
Socket=65535
NetCard=0
NetID=ffcf,ffdf,ffcf,

I've been at this for a hour now and I'm fairly pissed at it not working so I am now coming here for help.

Any ideas?
