Hello People, I'm having a problem with DosBox .63 and I hope someone can help. I have some games that run perfectly in windowed mode, but when I alt enter to full screen, or start them in fullscreen, sound and video freeze, about once or twice a second. For example, I have Pinball fantasies running perfectly in a window, opengl, sound, default res, zero fs, 9000 cycles. Soon as I go full screen, sound cuts out and video freezes and goes jerky.

I'm sure the solution is something simple that I've missed, but if anyone can help I would be well glad.

Cheers!

Fullscreen is more demanding when using opengl... (on the other hand it is the opposite with surface).
Basically you are using more cycles than your computer can handle in fullscreen with the specified settings.
