I feel as though this needs said:

TheMiningTeamYT IS NOT a fool. His/her thinking on the VBEMP 9x 'corruption' could lead to a better 'hack' than I've found.

The use of ALT+Enter to toggle the resolution just ended up being a means to and end to 'fix the corruption' on his/her particular machine. Of course lots of use knew it would toggle the command prompt between full-screen and windowed.

Just to note, until a better hack is found, he/she could use my 'hack' and just leave the ALT+Enter checkbox enabled on the Misc tab in the Properties dialog - shown in my little write-up:

One more thing, my 'hack' isn't going to work for everyone, not everyone needs it. VBEMP 9x obviously works differently with different hardware - I never had the corruption with DOSBox fullscreen. As I said in the original post:
This might not be for everyone.
In fairness, the screen corruption does not occur with all video cards.

To answer the question posed by Stephen W (that I can't seem to find here to quote), yes, I can use ALT+ENTER to fix the corruption in VGA.
Also, because of the fact that NSFW is ok here, without so much as a warning an an option to remove, I've made a subreddit where we can discuss this without... THAT. :sick: (or at least we can remove or ignore it when it does pop up)
Please, join me over on the new https://www.reddit.com/r/VBEMP9x/ (Don't worry about overbearing mods, the mod will be me unless you guys think I'm overbearing, in that case i'll hand it off to one of you.)

Also, for the record, it's he. :)

I appreciate what you're doing and you're feelings. I, however, will not be participating in any way shape nor form, with *anything* Reddit.

lol... as if people are going to go to reddit from here. Are you insane? :mrgreen: :lol: I don't think we even have accounts on reddit. I know I don't. hahaha... :lol: :lol: :lol:

If you are so worried about "not safe for work" with your oh so high morale, perhaps you shouldn't visit forums on your work hours. loool

By the way, as a side note, I do NOT post porn picture to disrespect the people in those photos. I have no problem with porn and I like it a lot. It applies to everyone including the transexual and other varieties of sex and gender identities. I want to make it very clear so it doesn't get misunderstood. :!: The pictures that I post, I actually like and enjoy. :!: :thumbup:
