Re: [vpFREE] Bob Dancer Winpoker using Windows 7

 

I take it you are referring to VPW, Video Poker for Winners and not
Winpoker the Dean Zamzow/Bob Dancer program?

You will need to change your screen resolution. I know it is a hassle
to switch back and forth.
START -> CONTROL PANEL -> DISPLAY -> ADJUST RESOLUTION (lower
resolution) -> APPLY

BTW, the old Winpoker and the new Wolf Video Poker scale to full screen
automatically! Thanks to Dean and Jim for their great programming skills.

Right now I would say the game only covers about 10% of the display. What's strange is where you select what to play such as 50-100 play or single game does cover most of the display. Is there a way to expand the game. I have never used Windows 7 before just XP and the horrible Vista OS.

[vpFREE] Re: Bob Dancer Winpoker using Windows 7

 

Do a right-click on the icon you use to launch Winpoker.

On the bottom of the menu click Properties.

In the next window on top click on the Compatibility tab.

check the box - Run this program in compatibility mode for:
Windows XP (Service Pack 3)

Click Apply button at the bottom of window.
Click OK.

See if that works.
