Im trying to play the Crysis demo in DX10. I had full screen when I set all my keys and settings, then when the game started it switched to a box. I can minimize the box but I cant maximize the box. Is there some kind of key combo for full screen? Thanks in advance.

Ok not trying to be condensending but after you started the game did you go back into the games settings and check off the full screen box?

Also do you have something like ZoneAlarm as a firewall? Because when I used ZoneAlarm it popped up a little warning box about Crysis accessing the internet and it put the demo in windowed mode. I simply had to just recheck the fullscreen box.

Just a few suggestions......

I looked for a full screen check box, I will look again.
It seemed after my Kaspersky Internet Security box popped up, thats when the game went into window mode. I just though maybe there was a a key combo that would automatically make a window full screen.
Im gonna go look for a full screen checkbox again. Thanks.

It seems the problem is only on DX10. I tried in DX9 and its fine.
