When I change my display settings and lower the display resolution to 1280X720, the default-size DOSBox window is at a better, larger size in relation to the size of my screen area, and the pixelation is not a problem.

Run dosbox full screen windows 7#

My Windows 7 display is 1920X1080, and at this resolution the default size DOSBox window takes up only approximately 1/9 of my display. What would be ideal, particularly for EGA games, is to be able to play the game in a correctly proportioned window about, say, 2-3 times the size of the default size DOSBox window, with nothing but black border around the game/DOSBox window. Does anyone know if it's possible, within DOSBox, to run games in windows bigger than the default size (while still retaining the correct proportions), but not quite at full screen? I know that we can edit the DOSBox config file and change the fullscreen line to equal "true" for full screen viewing however, I have a rather large, widescreen display, and the games (Sierra SCI0 EGA games, especially) look a little too pixelated when magnified this much, and the wide screen dimensions stretch out the picture and somewhat distort the look of the game.
