| 264413 | 2004-08-22 12:46:00 | My new Dell XP home has a program called 'Creative Diagnostics' for the 'Soundblaster Live' sound card. The window has no maximize box between - and x at the top right. The text runs off the window at the right and by the look of things two or three words are missing from each line. I could live with that, but the button which starts the tests is also off the edge of the window! I have tried dragging the edge of the window, it won't move; I've changed my screen resolution down to 800x600, no change either. Is there any way that I can see the right quarter of that window?

| 264416 | 2004-08-22 13:34:00 | Try a double click on the title bar | Rob99 (151) | ||
| 264417 | 2004-08-23 02:47:00 | Dave, The window doesn't fill the screen. That's why maximizing it would help if it could be done. R2x1, The window sits in the middle of the screen and occupies about 1/2 of it. Dragging it has no effect. Rob99, Double clicking the tittle bar has no effect. I did try all the usual things before posting this problem. Vince |

| 264419 | 2004-08-23 02:59:00 | This will happen if the default Windows font has been changed to a larger font. Dialogue box dimensions are often fixed, and a larger font simply flows the content out of the box, making it inaccessible. |
