Hello,

In Vista RTM:
If I do NOT install any video driver and use the standard video driver,I can
switch
Command Prompt to full-screen.
But if I install video driver and then I can NOT switch Command Prompt to
full-screen.If it is a expected behavior?
I check this symptom with Intel,ATi and nVIDIA video and get the same result.
And I gets nVIDIA comments--MS does not allow FSDOS mode in Vista. This is
not a bug.

Is it true?

Please kindly advise me thanks!

Is your resolution the same in both instances?

All resolutions can NOT switch Command Prompt to be full-screen.

No, but at lower resolutions, the window may appear to be full screen.

I have checked most resolutions and they don't
work.(640x480x256x60~1600x1200x32x85)

If there is a MS offical released information about this issue?
I have tried to find something,but I can not find anything about it.
