2405fpw & Command Prompt issues
I know this will likely generate many "what are you doing that for" replies, but whenever I set a windows command prompt shell to display as 'full window', the screen just goes black... alt-tab gets me back to my desktop, but if I try to switch to the full-screened command prompt window it just stays black... any ideas?
Here is some added information: If I am using the DV-I out on my video card to the DV-I in on the 2405 I get the black screen... however, if I use a DV-I -> D-sub converter to connect the DV-I out on the card to the D-SUB input on the monitor the full screen comman prompt works fine (well, except for some spacing around the edges that I can live with)... however there is a noticable quality/brightness difference with the overall picture when I do that...

Perhaps try upgrading video drivers?

I've got the latest drivers... for the 2405 fpw monitor and my video card (ATI AIW 9700 Pro)
It's annoying because I've got an old-school dos game that I like to play a few times a week and it goes to full screen when it starts.
I cant play it on my 2405 which I am otherwise very pleased with.
