Yes
But I believe different laptops not to mention desktops behaves slightly
differently.
I can not explain but this issue depends on the hardware you run!

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: RBASE FOR DOS, XP 1/2 BLACK SCREEN

I think ALT + ENTER will change this or:

Here is a post to the R-Base-L list I posted a bit ago

Here is what I do, If memory serves me Sami helped me alot on this one.

1. On the Desktop shortcut, right-click and then left-click on the
    properties menu.
2. Click on the Misc tab and remover the check for Allow Screen Saver
3. Click on the Screen tab and choose Window to start up RBase at first
4. Click Apply - and OK to save settings, now Double-click shortcut to
    start RBase in a Window.
5. Once Rbase is up, left or right click on the C:\ Icon in the top left
corner
6. Go to the Options tab and in the Display Options frame click the Full
Screen
    option
7. You will get prompted by an Apply Properties dialog. Click the Save
    properties for future windows with same title option and then OK.
8. This will bring you to a full screen. Immediatly exit RBase and then
    right-click on the desktop Icon and choose properties.
9. Go to the Screen tab and then click Full-Screen under the Usage
frame, and
    OK.

This should have it. -- Give it a try
