ok FINALLY after searching the web for 2 days found a topic line explaining how to access the conf file. Would have been very simple if people had sayed, The followng is for those having my same problem using XP; XPHome, XP64 or such.

CLick windows "Start" Button lower left corner of screen
Go to "All Programs"
Select "DOSBOX 0.073" folder
Select "Configuration"
Poof there.

NOW having found the elusive little bugger, I need to know which line I change to enlarge the window size by 50%. Anyone please? Where do I place the "normal3X" command into the line.

fullscreen=false
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=original
windowresolution=original "IS IT HERE"????? or somewhere else?
output=surface
autolock=true
sensitivity=100
waitonerror=true
priority=higher,normal
mapperfile=mapper.txt
usescancodes=true

a hint would be nice please.
Thanks
