I have Windows XP on a Dell 2400. When I open a web page it only fills half of my desktop and I have to click in top righthand corner to enlarge it. Is there a setting which open the page fullscreen immediately?

Typically when this happens, all you have to do is maximize the window and then click on the X to close the window and the next time you click on a link to a site, the computer should remember to maximize the window automatically. This has always worked for me but sometimes you have to repeat the procedure a couple of times.

Hi,
Here is something else to try, if the other Expert's idea doesn't work.
Use your mouse left key, hold down, and drag the edges to the edges of your computer screen.
Then, DON'T click on the X in the upper right hand corner.
Click on File at the top left, then click on Close.
Sometimes, this works when the X will not work.

It should then remember to open all windows fully maximized.
Best of luck,
fredg
