complete noob question...

I have a 19" monitor and I'd like to play games using DosBox in full screen mode,but it just looks awfully stretched.Windowed mode however is very small...from what I understand there's a way to change screen size manually via the config file.How can I 'emulate' a 15" screen with it?

If you have nVidia card you can set DoubleScanning in your card drivers configurations (you have to lower the refresh rate for that in order not to go out of sync)
