Having a problem with vice 128 in full screen - it doesn't - when you switch to full screen, the display still only covers the same area that the windowed screen does. This is under XP Pro with an Nvidia GeForce4 MX 4000. It's a bit irritating.....

You have to set the DirectX resolution.  I suggest using 800x600 and setting to double graphics scale.

That worked - well,  mostly! I have better success with 640 x 480 (sometimes the picture refuses to display at 800 x 600), but at lleast most times I can now get a proper full screen image & everything seems to be looking fine. Gotta say that GEOS 128 looks excellent on a full screen in 80 column mode!

Might even start playing with CP/M again too it is pretty usable at 200% speed and being able to dump everything in one big directory makes it easy to have all the programs I want to try very usefull, kinda like having a pseudo hard disk attached.
