   Yes Todd, and I don't want to argue without any point.   
      
   I'm not sure how closely you deal with hardware - but it's clear that the   
   video subsystem in your computer is of a type that made Windows load the   
   type of drivers which allowed you to switch to full screen.  The Dell   
   machine you have is a 'speshul' hardware combination.   
      
   Nobody else cares enough to comment on how their Win 7 32 bit behaves so   
   that'll just remain the way I interpret the results, as a hardware engineer.
