Failed to get Microsoft Space Cadet Pinball to appear in full screen in Windows 7

Is it at all possible to play Pinball Space Cadet mode full screen on a Windows 7 - system powered?

I tried all compatibility settings, but nothing works.

The standard screen (about 20% of the total screen space) is too small to have a good view of what is happening and the ball is too fast.

Please help, anyone, thanks in advance

I had this problem (command FullScreen would go full screen, but only use the image of the small screen) for the lifetime of Windows 8 and 8.1, but in upgrading my computer, during which some system files have been changed, the problem I described has disappeared and now I order full screen the screens playing Pinball across the screen, as he did when I had Win 95, 98, Vista and Win 7.

The upgrade was a hardware upgrade, so apparently some minor changes to System.  The problem of origin with Pinball (as I described above) may have been connected with the previous mobo, which apparently caused a sleep command requires to restart and finally the system would only run in Mode safe.  A new mobo (ram & cpu) and the video card brought the material to date and the problem of Pinball has been fixed.

However, as I say, the fix may be with the software that was related to the change of equipment.

I'm happy it's fixed and Pinball runs just once again.

    Is there a version of space cadet Pinball for Windows 7?

    Europeanonion,
    Yes, you can play Pinball Space Cadet on Windows 7.  If you have a valid copy of XP, you can copy the folder of your XP machine Pinball and put it on your Windows 7 PC.  I found freak out on my XP machine at this location: C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Pinball. * Note that the Program Files folder is a system folder and does not display its contents by default.* * I copied the entire folder and pasted on my Windows 7 box office and it works very well.  However, in mode full screen did not look too good.  I guess that's because I have a big screen and it was not created for these dimensions.  In window mode, it seems fine.  Mike - Engineer Support Microsoft Answers

  • I can't get my web pages and applications to open full screen

    No matter what I try, I can't do my windows to open in full screen, currently that's about 3 x 4 inches and whenever I have to optimize and then close when it opens again its young? I have a right-click the Explorer icon open the Properties tab and do it on the line run together optimise but still no luck?

    * original title - I can't get my web pages and applications to open full screen, I tried everything *.

    Here, everything you haven't done?

    Three options.

    1: take the corners of the window and drag it to the format full screen. Do not use to expand. Close all other windows first via the taskbar and the latter. Windows will remember the size of the last closed window the next time that you open the program.

    2: any shortcut you use to launch the window, right-click, and select Properties. Under the 'Run' drop-down list, choose "expanded".

  • Get games running full screen on Windows 7

    Last week, I bought this new Toshiba satellite laptop. It has Windows 7. None of my games will run full-screen. I've never had any problem with them my other computers or XP or Vista systems.

    I have W7 Home Premium.

    I'm just sick of trying to understand this. The only solution after it is simply to return the new laptop and buy a used one that works on Xp or Vista.

    If there is someone who could help me, I would be eternally grateful. I am so angry with this. I am the owner of a gambling site and none of my games 33 will now work with the Windows 7 program.

    Thanks in advance for your time, and I really really appreciate your time and your help.

    Hi Tmiller2008,

    What are the games you play?

    Are you trying to play the games online in mode full screen?

    If you download the games and install them on the computer, you can try to do it in compatibility mode and check if it helps to play games using the full screen.

    Make older programs in this version of Windows

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

    Also, if you are these online games and you use Internet Explorer as your web browser you try to use compatibility view as some of the ancient sites are not compatible with Windows 7.

    Why some sites Web not displayed correctly in Internet Explorer?

  • How can I get THE Office to enter the mode full screen on Windows RT?

    I have a Microsoft Surface. In the desktop version of IE, how can I do switch to full screen mode? I have to do this on other versions of Windows by enabling / disabling simply with the F11 key, but the touchcover keyboard does not function keys on the top, and not the on screen keyboard.

    Please see the list of shortcuts here:

    FN + PageUp = F11 , then you can try this. I do not have a Surface so I can't confirm if it works. Worth a try if.

    Hi Rita,.

    ·         What email are you using?

    ·         What is a web-based e-mail or you have an email client installed?

    If no server or an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) site is at your disposal, you can ask the sender to use a file compression utility, such as WinZip, to compress the file. This creates a file of archive compressed has a different file name extension.

    If you need help to use the server or the FTP site, you can ask the sender for help, or you can contact the administrator of the server for more information.

    Since yesterday, I clean installed Windows 8.1 on this machine and formatted the OS (C drive.)

    Install has no start-up problems, sound problems, yet remarkable stability problems.

    I also have intalled office 365 and you can use all of these great products.

    No more problems with my Vista corruption.

    BTW, I like the way you use the 8.1 environment.

  • HOW TO GET RID OF THE MODE ADDRESS BAR IN FULL SCREEN WITHOUT MOVING THE MOUSE

    When full screen toolbar address and tabs only lift and disappear after moving the mouse. It should automatically disappear after a few seconds, even if you do not move the mouse. Is there anyway to achieve this goal? Thank you.

    Thanks for your reply. Safe mode made no difference. However, I know how you feel. If you are in normal mode (with a Web site open), and then you press F11 for full screen, it will automatically hide the address bar. However, if WHILE in FULLSCREEN MODE, you enter a new address and go to another Web page it will hide the address bar after moving the mouse.
