Lil, Thank you VERY much! This makes perfect sense, even though it's in "geek". lol The numbers we need are in the middle section. I've retyped them below for David's use. 2C 00 00 00 02 00 00 00 03 00 00 FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF FF 04 01 00 00 A0 00 00 00 A6 04 00 00 84 03 00 00 David, Close any and all instances of IE before you begin any of this. Also, all of the 0's in the values are zeros, not the letter O. When you open up Regedit and go back to this key (it may open up with the right key already located), double click on the "Window_Placement" entry to open it for editing. Notice that the cursor is blinking at the top, left corner of the middle set of hexadecimal numbers. After writing them all down (just the middle set), press and hold the Delete key on your keyboard to wipe out what's already there. Notice that the right side characters also disappear. That's because each of the hex numbers represent one of the characters to the right. Once the entire area is clear, you can start typing in these new hex values. Of course, you'll want to be extremely careful that you type them in correctly since one mistake can have completely unknown consequences (it may not do anything, but it might also cause IE to be larger than your screen or smaller than any other window you've ever seen lol). Once all of the numbers have been entered, make sure you're left with 5 rows of 8 values followed by a single row of 4 values (for a total of 44 values). Triple check the values against what's above in this post and then, when you're absolutely certain that everything is correct, click on the Ok button and close regedit. Finally, reboot your system before opening up IE. If all goes well, your browser will open up in a mode other than fullscreen. You should then resize it and then Maximize it again to make sure all works as expected. Of course, if it still opens in fullscreen, let us know and we'll see if there's anything else we can try. :O) Peace, GMan "The only dumb questions are the ones that are never asked!" ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lil" <lilian.oswaldocruz@gmail.com> To: <pctechtalk@freelists.org> Sent: Thursday, August 09, 2007 1:27 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: -=PCTechTalk=- Re: Full Screen Mode Default Setting - PLEA FOR HELP > Hi Gman! > Good to see you too :o) > Is it the binary code you are interested in?
