Fullscreen?

Default Fullscreen?
Ok, I'm being lazy (and my internet is slow right now).

I have an old PII 400MHz laptop and there's not a lot I can do with it
really, it has limited graphics capability and won't run D2 acceptably. I've
been playing Age Of Empires on it and have recently installed Diablo and
Dungeon Keeper. However, both Diablo and DK run in a small wondow at
whatever their resolution is. (AOE can be set to 1024 x 768, the lappy's
screen res, so runs full-screen.)

Is there a way I can make Diablo (and maybe DK too...) run full-screen? The
screen is fairly small and my eyes aren't great so running in a small window
makes this limited-use laptop even more limited.

Franks,

There is probably a setting in your laptop's BIOS that toggles the
scaling of your screen.

It's an old Dell, nothing in BIOS and nothing I could find in the driver to
change it. :-(

Thanks anyway.
