Thread: Ms Dos

  1. #1
    The other day whilst I was teaching myself java the idiot next door came into my room and clicked the maximise button on the dos prompt so it covered the whole screen.
    Problem is now I can't figure out how to minimise it so I have to alt-tab to get out of DOS, does anyone know what I type to minimise it?
    Im on Windows 98.

    Do you even read problems before you answer them?

    How would exiting DOS minimize it?
