There are two parameters in DOSBox.conf that can help.
First, "fullresolution=". Set it to 640x480 or your current desktop resolution.
Second, "aspect". Setting it to "true" adjusts the aspect rate in games which used 8:5 (320x200, 640x400) aspect ratio to 4:3 (320x240, 640x480).

I will have to try that.

Well, i haven't had it cut off or anything like that, but when I go to full screen the graphics get grainy and it can be really hard to tell what is what, especially on some of the older games. if you want to know what I mean, take a small 128x128 picture and resize it to 512x512. They are still the same pic, you can usually sort of tell what the picture is of, but the larger one is blurry and some details are lost due to that blurriness.
I have a flat screen with my res set to 1280x1024 so taking it up to that size really messes the graphics up (and setting my res lower messes up my windows and such that I have open... or that I want to open)
Thanks for the tips, and I will download .72 tonight
EDIT: Downloaded .72 and while I can get the screen *slightly* larger, it won't go to the resolution size I set it at... but at least it is slightly larger (I tried from 640x480 all the way to 1024x768)
Again, thanks for all the help people
