I have a windos/dos app that I just migrated to xp, the
problem that I have is that the dos box that shows up in
full screen mode is only 1/3 the size of the screen. I
have tried putting the requiered files in the autoexec.nt
file with no success. The app runs fine, just
small.....any help would be appricated.

Have you tried hitting alt + enter ?

That usually makes a dos box go to full screen mode.

Find the *.exe file (or the shortcut, if that's how you're starting
the app) in Windows Explorer, right-click it, and choose "Properties".
Click the "Shortcut" tab, and look at the "Run:" drop-down box. Make
sure it says "Maximized", then click "OK". Now the program should
appear full-screen when you start it.
