    I want to run a simple BASIC program under VDOS (under Win 7 64-Bit), mostly to be able, to copy and paste (in Windows 7) some of the data shown at the display of vDOS.

    I installed vDOS, removed the program call DP26YI and the EXIT statement from the autoexec bat and started vdos. It works, I can enter Dir etc. .

    However there are 2 problems:

    1.) Win + F12 increases the vdos screen, but Win +F11 does not decrease it.

    2.) worst of all, when I press CTL+WIN and want to mark something of the text on the screen to copy it to the clipboard, I cannot drag the mouse (the cursor seems to be locked) and the vdos windows shifts a litte bit to the right with each left button mouse click.

    What shall I do, to run vdos mit copy and paste?

    Thank you for your help

    Edit: I have found, that there was a 2nd window with vDOS running. After I closed it, Win + F11 and Win +F12 work perfectly. However not the mouse.
    I hope, someone can help me.

      1. No one so far reported problems with Win+F11. Is this key combination perhaps assigned to some Windows action/program?
      2. The same for Ctr+Win+mouse click. The vDos window shifting would indicate vDos has stalled. Does this happen after you tried Win+F11, always, at the command line or in your Basic program?
        You could try to download vDos and install it once more. Perhaps something went wrong with downloading or installing, though unlikely.
