I've seen many mid-1990s laptops. When running DOS programs or playing DOS games in real-mode DOS, the screen isn't full screen, and there are black borders around the screen!

It feels like the DOS screen is shrunk by a circle! ~~ Laptops after the year 2000 rarely have this kind of situation~~

You can set the screen stretch. DOS resolution is only 640*480, while laptops need at least 800*600 or above.
