Hi - I am completely new to DosBox. I am trying to get a game to run in full screen. I know that you hit alt - enter to do that. However, when I do that, it runs with a black band at the top and one at the bottom. Is there any way to fix this? I'm sorry if I might have missed where it said how to do this. Thanks!

It may not be fixed at all, depending on the resolution of your screen and the resolution the game uses, but enabling the aspect ratio correction often works. In dosbox.conf, find the [render] section and set aspect=true
