Black border on dos programs in full-screen

Jun 1, 2005 2:20AM PDT

I am the owner of a toshiba sattelite 3000-x4 laptop. My company requires me to use a dos-based software for their operations. However, in windows, whenever I select full screen, there is a massive black border around the whole program. If anyone has any suggestions or fixes, please reply. Thanks

1. Not the right forum.
2. Run it in a Windows "box". Now set the font or stretch it. That's DOS legacy apps for you...
