When in Fullscreene mode the screen is switched 90 degree, so the graphics are vertical, centered to the middel
My current screen resolution is
no problem in executing in windowing mode.
My current grpahics setting is true color 1024x768
a systray tool called Intel Extrem grpahics 2 for Mobile is installed where i can set the ordinary screen resolution.
my screen is turned 90 degrees, so it is vertical and centered. cannot use full screen mode anymore,

You've probably got your Intel "Extreme" (ha!) set up to have the screen rotated at whatever resolution it is being changed to. Disable rotation in the Intel Extreme Graphics control panel.
Yes, it’s my fault.
I also can't play in fullscreen mode!
When I go to fullscreen, I can only see a small bit on the bottom of my monitor(it's from the top of the game) and the rest is just black!
What could be the problem?
Maybe the video drivers are fubar. I am not sure. Also edit DOSBox configuration file and change output to some option else.
how do i get dosbox to have more conventional memory
i only have 637 kb for conventional memory listed in mem how do i change it to higher
Higher? !!! That's a lot of free conventional memory. In fact, that's the best you could get. Even in the ms-dos era no one would be able to free more than 625KB+ of conventional memory. 😳
Nope, IIRC, I was able to free up 631kb with QEMM back in the day. This was probably without much loaded tho. You could probably do a bit better off with Real DOS nowadays since FreeDOS has TSR's that take up far less memory.
DosFreak: Intersting, but eL_PuSHeR's point still stands that few if any DOS games actually require that much free conventional memory.
Who needed 640K anyway 😁. No really, I don't remember any game that needed more than, say, 610-615KB conventional memory all easily achievable if you knew how to tweak config.sys (QEMM was sometimes unstable for me). And dosbox? Why on earth is 637KB not enough and why would those 3 extra kb make a difference?
