I have a problem with a dos I want to run a Hebrew Dos data base program on the Rambam. The data base demands in order to see the fonts correctly in Hebrew the setting must be full screen and in full screen it will show correctly. However, it appears that when I set the properties to full screen it doesn't remain at full screen, I am informed the fonts are not installed the full screen is shown for 2 - 10 seconds and collapses into a window. I am using a work around, that of choosing 7X14 Raster fonts, although I am told by the maker of the data base that the fonts are NOT raster fonts. The window size is around 50% of the screen size. Any ideas on how to reset the C:\ settings so all dos is at full screen again? The attached pictures should explain the settings.

Shalom Chaver:

I'm not clear on where you set the DOS properties to be full screen.

Did you use a shortcut for the DOS program. If you use a shortcut, then Windows will remember the setting for that DOS program.

Try creating a shortcut to the executable file for the program.
Then go right-click on the shortcut, click Run, and select Maximize instead of normal or whatever setting is there.

If this doesn't work, there are other methods.

Good luck.
