      Pressing Alt-Enter should switch the DOS terminal between a window and full screen.

      What version of Windows are you using?

      I've given this a bit more thought, and it may be a problem with a .pif file. Check to see if there are any files with the same name as the program you are running and a .pif extension, and rename or delete any that you find.

      .pif files store settings for MS-DOS programs such as screen mode, and removing the pif should restore the default settings for a particular program.
