My first is that my screen will not open max. it's the first screen when I
start in and then every screen after that. I've tried everything recommended
in this group and no luck. Second is that I want to open any page in it's
own screen regardless if I typed in the url or looked in my favorites folder
or clicked on a link. Could someone help me with these two very annoying
problems?
 
Have you tried opening the first screen, stretching it to desired size,
opening a second screen and stretching it. Then close the first screen and
thereafter, the second one.

Or R-Click>properties>Run dropdown list> select Maximized.

I am having a similar problem, but only with one application. All others are
fine. It has been suggested to me to open the screen>stretch to size>click
file tool list>click close in that list.

1. Maximize Issue:

1. Open a link.
2. Don't use the maximize button.
3. Stretch the edges/corners so that the window fills the screen.
4. Close all other IE windows.
5. Close the stretched window last.

However, the above procedure is not equivalent to SHOWMAXIMIZED API call.
Best option is to use "IE New Window maximizer"

(Uses Windows API calls and automatically maximizes every browser window you
open)

2. Use same browser window:

1. Open Internet Explorer
2. Click Tools > Internet Options > Advanced tab
3. Uncheck "Reuse windows for launching shortcuts"
4. Close Internet Explorer

The Reuse windows for launching shortcuts setting is used to determine
whether a new or existing instance of Internet Explorer is used when
exploring a Web site using one of the following methods:

a. Double-clicking an Internet shortcut (.url file) from within Windows
Explorer.
b. Opening a URL by clicking Start, and then clicking Run.
c. Using a desktop toolbar, such as the Address or Links bar.

When this setting is selected, an open instance of Internet Explorer is used
to display any Web site loaded using the above methods. If the setting is
cleared, then the above methods start a new instance of Internet Explorer.

I forgot, for the second problem; Start>settings>Folder options>General
tab>settings>open each folder in it's own window>OK>OK out.

Also look into Control panel>Internet options>advanced>uncheck "reuse
windows for launching shortcuts">OK out.

Click to expand...

For the first screen, right-click the icon you use to access IE,
select properties. Set it to run in a maximized window. Apply and okay
your way out.
 
My second problem has been solved. Thank you very much. As for the first
nothing has worked. It's very frustrating because I just keep trying and
nothing. Also, in my internet options>advanced tab I have to things checked.
I was wondering if they are conflicting. use java 2 v.1.4.2 for <applet>.
the next one is- java console enabled. the third is- JIT compiler for
virtual machine enabled. They are all checked. Is there any problem here? I
have comcast cable modem internet access. I have been having problems with
some pages I believe were designed by netscape script. My pc freezes a lot
when trying to view pics. Thanks for all the advice so far. I'll keep
trying.
 
No that shouldn't be a problem in regard to your first issue, as I run the
same and haven't the difficulties that you're experiencing. Have you checked
for some kind of parasitical/viral presence?

Anyway, her are some things you can look into and see if they offer any
explanation for your condition.
