Hi, i have got qb45 running in a dos box on Windows Home Basic. It takes up less than one quarter of the screen. Is there any way to run it larger or ideally full screen at higher resolutions?
Best regards, Peter Sullivan.

I use DOSBOX-0.63 ( I know its old) the readme file is quite good.
You can edit the dosbox.conf file to give you various screen definitions and to run programs in full screen mode. First make a copy of the existing dosbox.conf and then play around with it.

You shouldnt have any problems running qb45 directly under Windows Home Basic.
(Thru to Xp Pro SP3 depending how the HardDrive is formatted. Compatability mode doesnt always work)

Try this. Make a short cut to the desktop and then change the properties
Under :-
Program: Make sure Cmd line and Working is correct.
Change Run to Maximized.
If you dont want the program to go back to windows after it completes then dont click close on exit.

Memory: Change everything to Auto
Screen : Click Full-screen

I have now downloaded Dos Box 0.74. It is good.
