How do you get games runnning full screen? i.e. without a border (or minimum border).
I've tried Alt+D, and Alt+Enter, and changing all the resolution and screen settings, both in the emulator on my PC, and still I'm looking at a game in a window with a wide black border.
There must be a way!

Try the option form the menu that says, not suprisingly, "Fullscreen."
Seriously, need to decrease the resolution of the WinVICE screen to be the actual C64 resolution. In the settings->video settings menu, decrease the resolution to 320x240 or 400x300 (full C64 border).

Thanks for your replies.
I've tried that (the res.) I must have set something wrongly on my PC cos I then at 400x300 get a view of a square of the game running at correct (full screen) size but viewed through a black border.
I've also noticed the Windows Xp pinball game is now only running in a little window too.
I'm sure I'll sort it out. Annoying tho.

I have a 17 inch monitor and get about a 1 inch black border. I think it depends on the monitor size and video card. You only have so many res settings in Windows, and I don't know of any that have the perfect 320x240 (or 320x200 NTSC). I also have a computer with a 22 inch monitor with a top-end CAD graphics card that supports tons of resolutions which gives me about a 1/4 inch black border.
You'll notice that CCS64 v3.0b uses DirectX and gives a black border, while CCS64 v2.0b doesn't use DirectX and usually can give a near-perfect fit.
