Question: How can I go about configuring DOSbox to open in a larger window than the default? I thought you could make it open larger but I'm not finding the answer in my Dosbox files.

Tip: Also, if you're a newbie and having problems getting it to work, don't give up. I had a hard time and almost gave up. Then I tried adjusting the speed using CTRL F8 and F12 and my games work fine now. The program works, you just have to play with it a bunch to make it work for you.

If anyone can help me with my question, answer here or email me at johnskisfastest@yahoo.com

Thanks..

Yep, that's the only way to do it as a Window or if a fullscreen you have to set fullfixed=true and set fullwidth and fullheight to your Display Dimensions.
