small screen using dos program on XP Home
First time XP and notebook user here.
I am able to load and run an old dos program in this machine (I was told XP wouldn't run a dos program but this does :-) The problem is the window size being about 1/4 of the screen. I have tried to 'grab' it and expand it out but it would not allow this. I tried the maximize button and the size changes about 1 inch. Any suggestions on how to make this a full screen is greatly appreciated. Mark |

Hitting Alt+Enter expands DOS windows to fullscreen mode in XP.

On some notebooks Fn+F7 will expand and scale a dos window.

Alt+Enter works on every Windows machine. RJ
