full screen for games on vista
I have a Toshiba laptop with vista but when ever i play a game it doesnt go to full screen, starcraft, for example is just centered and only takes up about a fourth of the screen. Its not a huge problem, just kind of anoying cause it makes it kind of hard to see. It didnt always do this, so i probably changed some setting somewhere... I looked around and i cant find any options relating to this, any of you know how i can fix?
My bro has the same brand of laptop and we can't get it to go full either, I've asked and people say the Run as and crap like that, but it's never worked for us..
None.
Just here for the activity... well not really
My Toshiba laptop uses XP and it does fullscreen fine. Its probably a Vista problem.

Have you tried using basic troubleshooting, or configuring your system settings?
None.
This isn't Vista's fault. What kind of graphics card do you have?
If you have an intel thingy, right click on your desktop and go to Graphics Properties, and find something with the option Full screen (no border).

I have the same issue on an old Toshiba laptop with Windows 98. Not that it bothers me, cause I never use it, but it's sort of funny that two other Toshiba laptop users also have the issue.
i do have intel and it is on full screen (no border)

Ultraviolet -- oh yeah probably. think I misinterpreted the original message. I thought he meant moving the flag revealed the base in the sense that it opened it up to being scouted, but what you're saying makes more sense[2025-5-15. : 11:37 am]
Sie_Sayoka -- dont those ladder maps have use map settings game type? i remember in a lot of them there was display text showing the maker and other credits at the beginning[2025-5-14. : 4:42 pm]
fritfrat -- Good point.. maybe in Melee it sets off the hard-coded Capture the Flag logic when they pick up a p12 flag, revealing the SCV[2025-5-14. : 4:34 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Yeah, I forget how they do it, but they can preplace P12 units in melee / TvB maps. Maybe unit sprites[2025-5-14. : 3:38 pm]
fritfrat -- Artosis and Tasteless were chatting on an ASL cast that 6 player maps will likely never happen for competitive SC, but Artosis mentioned how there was a concept of one where a worker had to pick up a flag to get out of their base, which resulted in their base being revealed. That's not possible with Melee / Top vs Bottom settings, is it? Thought I'd ask..[2025-5-09. : 8:45 pm]
Ultraviolet -- Me too. The general concept is exciting and fun to play, or at least I enjoyed it in the previous Diplo Europe iteration.
