Switching between full screen and window

To use DOSBox in full screen, press the ALT key and, while pressing the ALT key, press the Enter key. Do this again, and you return to the DOSBox window. To enhance image quality, continue reading.

Changing the DOSBox resolution and image quality

Here at DOSGamers, we like our DOS games to look clear and just like the original. As most DOS games are made for screens with a resolution of 320x240 pixels, DOSBox needs to scale the image. With default settings, DOSBox in full screen looks blurry or fuzzy and squashed in case of wide screens. At startup, the window is also kind of small. So what did we do?

• Open the DOSBox configuration file:
  
  • Windows 7: Press CTRL + ESC (or Start button), type in dosbox and the options file should appear in the search results, click it
  • Windows 8 and Windows 10: Press the Windows key + Q, type in dosbox, and the options file DOSBox 0.7x Options should appear in the search results, click it
• Look for the [sdl] section
• Use fullscreen=true for full screen
• Use fullscreen=false for DOSBox in a window
• Change fullresolution=original to fullresolution=desktop
• When using a window, change windowresolution=original to windowresolution=1280x960 (or use 1024x768 for a smaller window). You can enter any resolution you want but remember that DOS games were made for screens with a 4:3 width/height aspect ratio. See also the aspect setting below.
• Change output=surface to output=openglnb (uses graphics hardware and maintains crisp image with scaling). You might try output=ddraw if your hardware doesn't support OpenGL. In some cases ddraw also has a lower CPU load.
• Scroll down to the [render] section
• Change aspect=false to aspect=true if you run DOSBox in full screen mode (this maintains 4:3 aspect ratio. If you've set a resolution with another aspect ratio, like 1280x480, this will be converted to 640x480. In the same way your desktop resolution like 1920x1080 will be converted to 1440x1080. Otherwise keep on false if you like the aspect ratio of your resolution setting.)
• Save the configuration file with CTRL+S (or File - Save)
• (Re)start DOSBox

It is possible to install Windows ME properly without crashing. It requires

some workarounds and changing parameters per boot, but it is possible.

1. Boot into a disk image with a base DOS os on it (MS-DOS 6.22 or Win 9x

DOS mode). your dosbox.conf should have core=dynamic and IDE emulation

enabled. Make sure the v86io hack is enabled so that Windows ME can

use the same INT 13h detection method to enable it's IDE driver.

Also make sure that apmbios=false at this stage so that Windows ME

does not install the APM driver (which is incompatible with DOSBox

and can be a major source of BSODs).

2. Run the first setup phase of the Windows ME setup program. When it

reboots, shut down the DOSBox emulator. Do NOT let it boot.

3. Change your dosbox.conf to core=normal or core=full. Start DOSBox

and let Windows ME run through it's setup and autodetection.

This will take a long time because you are not using the dynamic

core. But because of some issues with the dynamic core and some

floating point tests carried out by Setup, you cannot use the

dynamic core at this stage.

4. When the setup and detection phase is complete, let Windows ME

reboot. It will begin the normal desktop, but may insist on

running the Setup and autodetection phase again before allowing

the desktop to show. When the desktop finally appears, shut

down Windows ME.

5. Edit your dosbox.conf to change core=dynamic. You may also

set apmbios=true at this point if you want Windows shutdown

to close DOSBox automatically---but make sure you do not allow

WinME to install the APM driver!

Alternative method (faster): Run Windows ME setup with core=dynamic.

Let it go as far as it can. When you can no longer proceed without

crashing, reboot WinME into safe mode, force your way to the desktop,

and use regedit.exe to delete all startup keys from registry location

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionRunOnce

This will allow Windows ME to boot, though with a lot of missing

driver functionality. It is very likely in this mode that you will

forever be stuck in 640x480 16-color mode, and every time you boot,

Windows ME will complain the display is not configured correctly and

any attempt to remedy that will fail (evil voice) MWAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA!

THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR BEING SO IMPATIENT SUCKER!
