Bigger dos window in win 7 32 bit

I thought this wasn't 100% true, but depended on the video driver
offering support. The mainstream ATI/NVidia drivers generally
don't, but supposedly some basic MS drivers might.
I have heard the same thing... but I've never found a computer running
Vista or Win7 that could run DOS full-screen, nor have I heard of
anyone else being able. So, maybe someone out there can, but I've not
heard a verifiable sighting.

Is that you Chuck?
I have found a partial solution to lack of full screen in dos program.

(after a lot of googling)

1) Make a short cut of command prompt to desktop

2) Right click - properties - fonts - change to Lucida Console 38 - save

3) Install all dos programs in my users\fd folder

4) Write simple batch files to acces dos programs in their folders.

My programming ability is restricted to writing simple batch files.

On 23 inch lcd wide screen dos window occupies about 90% of real estate
