Hi:
I did everything I saw on the other post, changing to 256 colors and the
resolution but the game appears in the center of the screen and small, how
can I make it full screen?
thanks for your help

What game? What post did you copy results from? Please give complete
details.

Try pressing Alt/Enter. Try the instructions for the game.

Many games have a toggle, such as F10 to toggle between full screen mode
and windowed.

Also see if your graphics card has a Display button in the tray
(notification) area of the taskbar, near the time.

Try running in W95 compatibility mode. Right-click the program click
Properties, Compatibility, etc. There's an option there to run in
640x480 screen resolution too. That should make the game window larger..

nope, i tried and it i got the message that this program is not compatible
with windows xp 2000 or 98 it will only run correctly on windows 95. How can
this be? i checked 640x480 but nothing either.should i install windows 95 too
on my computer, or the part of the program that I need?
thanks a lot for your time!

No, doubt that would help. If you can't right-click the window and find
an option to "Show Full Screen", or similar, try changing to 640x480
screen resolution before starting the game.
