I don't get it, sorry. My text screen is too far to the left so that 2 or 3 letters are cut off. I've diddked with the screen rez so that 720x500 will show everything, but I'd like to make it a little bigger without chopping off the left side. 640x480, or 400, gives me the same thing. Other settings I get an out of frequency message on a black screnn. My lcd monitior has an auto adjust that moves it just enough to the right, but then it goes back. Monitor set at
1152x864, dosconfig is;
fullscreen=true
fulldouble=false
fullresolution=720x500
windowresolution=original
I`ve searched many postings looking for this, and can't find it, so I thought I would ask for help, please. I'm sure the answer is to be found, I just can't seem to find it. Would you please be so kind as to advise me on this matter? I think dosbox is the greatest and most practical piece of freeware ever, you guys rock! Thanks, Marqoz [/quote]

Got it! Thanks, robertmo, The text looks like the old font from LSL 1, but at least I can see all of it. Great! Gratefully, Marqoz

to your monitor's maximum resolution

and if you want it blur output opengl or ddraw or overlay
scaler none
