For some reason my code adamantly refuses to go into a full screen mode. Whenever i type in the code

Code:
Screen 13,,,&h1

I get an empty black screen, it displays nothing whatsoever. Whereas when i use


Code:
screen 13

Whatever it should be displaying is displayed, in a window(as is expected. Any suggestions?

so what happens when you do this

Code:
screen 13, , , 1
paint( 0, 0 ), 15

sleep


edit: try updating directx, and if that still doesnt work, then try

in the command prompt:

Code:
set FBGFX=GDI
yourprog.exe
adding set fbgfx = gdi doesn't work..in fact it progresses even less. where earlier i actually do have the code executing without displaying anything, here it just gets miserably stuck. When i type in
Code:
screen 13, , , 1
paint( 0, 0 ), 15

sleep

it doesn't really accomplish much. just sits there in darkness. i'm quite sure i'm running the latest version of DX(the one that's required to run Doom 3©). Any other suggestions?
Does your PC support Full Screen 320 * 240? Because i think most graphics cards dropped support for it, i know mine has...
quite sure it should...it works in qb anyway..
What happens if you try:

Screenres 320, 200, 8, , 1
It works!! colours are just funky though but i assume I can set up my own palette..i love you wallace!!<hugs and kisses and other favours where needed>
Just as a side note, the GDI driver only has windowed support (no fullscreen).
