    I play card games. The new window that pops open is to small. I can not drag the corner to enlarge it. It is at its max. How can I enlarge it after that?
    I am using WIN98

    Need the name of the game. This will have to taken on a case by case basis. Many of these "Desktop" games have a predefined size encoded in the exe file for the game itself and are not designed to adjustable (Kind of one size fits all sort of thing). If it does not have an option somewhere in any preference to adjust the size you will not be able to do so. In rarer cases but... others may have an ini file with a display option that can be edited, some have registry hkey and value that could possibly be edited. Work around would be to adjust or lower your own display setting resolution.

    I know this is not the answer you seek because I have squinched at enough of these predefined games myself (older mine sweep comes to mind). I have found that I can either "live with it" if the game is amusing enough or find a newer alternative that is much the same as what I have via a freeware/shareware site. There are usually enough different versions and varities that are quite similar that a substitution is easily found and enjoyed much to the relief of my eyeballs and optometrist.
