hi there, i have a problem with using DOS box fullscreen. i have a 17" lcd monitor, and when i switch at DOSbox on fullscreen, the monitor says it´s "out of range" i changed resolution of screen and many other things and it didn´t help. can someone help me out?

What is your main desktop resolution?

Have you tried to change DOSBox to start in full screen? (You can do it in config file)

my main resolution is 1024 x 768...
and i didn´t try to do it in the config file.. do you think it would work?

Try it. (you never know)

Go to config file, and change

fullscreen=false

to

fullscreen=true

In the case you got same message when you start DOSBox, click ctrl + F9 to exit it.

Let us know if this helped you.

Also, if you can post resto of configuration for full screen.

Does that happen with every game or just a selected few? I have a LCD screen too, and usually no problems with DosBox because the resulution/refreshrate combo seems to be supported by my monitor, some windows95 games make problems though when I set the resolution too 800x or 1024x. If nothing else helps, you might want to try a program that will lock the refresh rate of DosBox full screen to something your monitor supports.

I had this problem and I found the answer on the dosbox forums.

My dosbox config now reads:

fullscreen=false
fulldouble=false
fullfixed=true
fullresolution=1024x768
output=overlay
hwscale=1.00

and this works perfectly for me!

Hope that helps! :D

Fullfixed does not resize the screen when in full screen mode. Not sure how does that helped.

I didn't question it - it worked!!! :D

:) That's true, most importantly it worked.

You also changed output. That I believe helped.
