Default Deaktop shrinks

Come to think of it, my honey-do list does take up a bit of my time but
don't you tell my wife I said so G

Being retired should present lots of free time but as I think you now
know, it doesn't. :-)


Hah! First you have to go buy a t-shirt that you'll wear for awhile
every where that states:

Would someone please tell her I'm retired ---.

You should be thinking the opposite, because if they in any way they
think you have more time, the list can/will grow.

My pleasure ma'am. If I ever get some spare time, I'll drop you a note
and find out how things are in Big D. I don't know how I ever got
anything done when I worked full time. Being retired should present lots
of free time but as I think you now know, it doesn't. :-)

Thanks Ron! Appreciate you stepping in and finding this for Kim. I've
been away from the computer for a few days.

Regarding your note to Patty, it is taking me three times longer to
prepare the message than it did to find the driver:

https://support.ati.com/ics/support/...ge&folderID=27

Click on W98 drivers

Click on All in Wonder

Under 128 click on item 2

Under Download click on the file name

Good luck

Thanks for you replies, Ron refresh doesn`t cure it, Brian I tried your
suggestion but no joy there and patty Have you tried to find drivers on
the
ATI site lol.This is the info from Everest for my video adapter if some
one
would be kind enough to find the correct driver. Ati rage 128 GL (ATI
All-in-wonder 128 Pro) device description:All-in-wonder 128 AGP, chip
type:
R128, Installed drivers: ATI2DRAA.DRV. Running win98se
Thank again
Kim

It may be the resolution used by the game causing the screen to
shrink.
You could try as Ron suggests by refreshing the screen. Another thing
you
could try is creating a shortcut to the games .exe and in the
shortcuts
Properties Run box, setting the .exe to open maximized.

Hi all, I downloaded and installed Casino-on-net which runs fine but
what
i`ve found is that if I play the game on full screen(it opens by
default
to
minimized 1/2 screen), is that when I exit the game the desktop has
shrunk
ie: there`s a black 1/2 inch boarder around the edge and any
applications
I
open are all the size of the desktop. I`ve checked the display
properties
and nothing seems to have changed. when I reboot all`s back to
normal.
Any
ideas on what I can do to resize it back to normal without
rebooting.
Thank and happy new year
Kim
