Since I got my DSL, I have looked all over this PC for a setting to get my start page to load full screen. Can someone direct me to the proper place?

Right click on your IE shortcut, click properties, change "Run" to maximized. Nothin to do with DSL

Resize it manually to full size. Close it by hitting the X.
Open it again, and see if it opens where you want it. If it does, check the Tools, Internet Options, Advanced, and look for something about "Open IE maximized"... Make sure you set all shortcuts you use to "open IE maximized", not just one. fishing in the dark  |

I'm looking around reboot. I'm trying the suggestions you gave me, but as yet, it still wants to start normal. I'll working on it.
Thanks for pointing me in direction I should go. Carl |

If you are using IE 5.5, simply use the maximize button in the upper right hand corner and maximize your browser and then (as Reboot said) use the close (X) button to shut down the browser. Now the next time that you run your browser it should open up maximized. There is no option in the advanced properties to set the browser to run maximized

Rick and reboot. So far no go. Tried many ways to exit, maximize, shut down, etc.
Oh well, pcs are temperamental and one of these days will decide to open the way I want it. Thanks to you. I'll let you know if I get it working. Carl |
