Title: Anybody a DOS expert?
Post by: Tara on August 26, 2006, 12:40:42 PM
I've got a problem.  :'((   I use a program in DOS, (I know it's old but I have to use it for my work) that's the only thing I have on that computer is the DOS program for work. Well, it's not full screen when I'm using it. I have another computer that has the same thing on it. Only that DOS program, but it shows full screen.

I've looked everywhere to find something that will change it. There has to be a DOS command that does it. I've tried comparing both computers and files and stuff to see if everything is the same. I went to config.sys and it's not there.

I know if I had any Windows version on the computer you can change from there, but I don't.

:OO

I'm not sure but I think if you hit the alt and enter keys at the same time it will resize the window or make it full screen if it's smaller.

are you running this on a true dos pc or an xp machine?

if xp and your running it inside a window

run the program
rightclick on the title bar (the bar with the min/max/close icons in the top right corner)
select properties
you will see display options select full screen
click ok
and it will then promt you just this time or everytime

if you want to practice first do
start run
type cmd
hit enter

and try out the commands

if you need more help send a screenshot

Try the F11 thing and see if that works.  Other than that not an idea.
