This answer is video board specific, but I can do it with my ATI VIP
card. I open a dos window full screen with graphic possiblities. In
that window I issue the command that switches the display to the size
I want.
Note however, that tapping the {DESQ} (alt) key returns you to a size
that DV can handle. Say that as MAY return you...
These operations could always be put in macros.
