i know i should know this but.... when you are playing oldskool DOS games through windows, how do you get it to go fullscreen when the maximise button won't work? and also when they ask for which old sound settings you have (like soundblaster etc) which option is best to choose? yes i know i'm clueless............ :bucky!:

Alt+Enter should make full screen.
In sound settings best option is to choose Soundblaster (SB_AWE32 is better but SB16 is more compatibile). IRQ and DMA are dependent on computer you use.
