When you run Pixel you have to enter the video mode you want before it starts. It comes with a test program that tells you what video modes are available. I think mode 179 gives you a full screen. I need some software to do the same thing for dos. Unfortunately Pixel resets when you exit. cheers

I have the Arachne source code. If I get a chance someday to read it; perhaps I can figure out how they did it. Other than that I'll just have to get use to mini screens. cheers DS On Mon, 6 Oct 2014 10:17:24 -0500 Rugxulo rugx...@gmail.com writes: Hi, On Sun, Oct 5, 2014 at 8:15 PM, Dale

I run FREEDOS on a DELL Lattitude on a cf chip instead of the ide harddrive. Ther's isn't any way to control screen resolution. FREEDOS runs as a tiny screen in the center - very annoying. I haven't found any dos sound driver that work yet. Movies run silent. Otherwise everything seems to work.

Scitech Display Doctor might help fix your display. There could also be Linux documentation for the display issues. I would look for something like that. Find out about the details of the sound card. There's lots of sites that have old drivers if you know something about your sound card. Good
