I have a desktop and a laptop, both pc's have Windows XP, Sp3. On both pc I have the same games (Windows and Dos). Since a few months the dosgames on my laptop are no longer full screen but with high resolution, that means small screen. My Mahjongg and patience games are to small. I search everywhere to find a solution to get the games with a full screen again. No results. The changes you can make in a PIF files has no effect on the games. Why is that only happens on my laptop. On my desktop the dos games are all shown at full screensize. I have enough memory, enough free discspace. My laptop is three years old. The games are located on a external disc (size 156 Gb, free discspace is 140 Gb). My laptop is in a good condition. Everything works as it should.

Ho has the answer on my problem. Don't look at the languages mestakes. I'm Dutch. ;)

Try pressing "Alt" and "Enter" at the same time while playing the games.
This should put them in full screen mode.

I don't know if that's correct, I used an online translator.
