I've installed DOSBOX and it works.

The only issue is that when I change to full screen, the size of the box stays the same (small). I only get a black on sides and both top and bottom.

Please check it here -> http://img232.imageshack.us/img232/6381/dosboxwj5.jpg

Is this normal? Can't I get the box bigger?

I'm running dosbox in a laptop with nVidia Go 7300 (Resolution 1280X800)

The direct3d output method is not part of the standard DOSBox build, and isn't working very well currently (did some tests last weekend, and the results were not quite good). Dazkarieh, if you're on Windows you could try "ddraw" output, this is the best option on my system (Radeon X1650). To change the output method, you have to edit "dosbox.conf". Read the DOSBox readme and the various FAQ's and guides on VOGONS for details.
