BOINC will only stay at full screen size on one of my machines (PIII running W2k pro). Anyone else have this problem or is it something quirky with my box?

I had that problem for a while on one of my systems (either W98SE or W2K), but it went away all by itself. Or maybe I started doing something differently. I don't remember. Sorry.

Hmm, actually, I'm not running at "full screen" anymore. Put it back to "non-full-screen", then drag the edges until it is effectively full-screen. By that I mean: don't use the "maximize" button to make it bigger. That's what I'm doing, and it does keep that size.

Also when you set the size exit the client and restart it. It generally will not save the settings if the OS shuts it down.
