There should be a bios option somewhere.

I checked bios and there's nothing about scaling or let alone to change anything on the display option:(

Well then yes you're right, there is a TSR that does this in software, but I don't have it. Somebody posted it in a similar thread once, you could try searching for it 😀

Just did some searching. and found a thread called Tecra 720CDT = Great DOS Gaming Laptop and says There is a screen stretching TSR for the Toshiba laptops with CT65550 chips. and a attached file called vexp13.zip

I downloaded it going to give it a try:) From looking the 430 cdt seems to have the same chip CT65550 .

It seems like its ony for dos and not windows but it will do fine for me if it works in dos:)

Welp that works great!!! everything is in full screen even starting the games in windows:) Been trying to find something to do this for ages 🤣 Glad i found this site if it wasin't for you guys i still be looking 🤣 there is tons of people like on youtube that says this laptop sucks for dos games because of the scaling issue. They really need to know about this:)

Mostly this laptop just sat most of the time sense i got it because of that issue. But now i have a perfect dos/95 machine:) was using my compaq 1675 laptop for dos/98 games but in some dos games it was just to fast but deal with it 🤣

Now to image this hdd and put in a bigger one cause the stock 1.2gb is just way to small 🤣

What im wondering why didint toshiba add something like this in the first place 😕

Probably because at that time these laptops were mainly used for work, so having good compatibility with full-screen DOS games was not a priority.
