With the ESC key-issue out of the way, a new one arises:

As you can see from the attached photos, BGB can be used on two fullscreen modes.

Fullscreen and Fullscreen Stretched.

I would highly prefer the Fullscreen Stretched option as default, however, it is to the extend of my knowledge, not compatible with mGalaxy.

I believe mGalaxy has only been tested with the regular fullscreen option which has masive black boarders around it.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated!

To elaborate a little on that, yes, fullscreen strected can be played in mGalaxy but not immediately.

I have to open the menu bar option of the emulator to get it to work.

For the life of me I can't to set the program to run fullscreen strechted upon loading the rom.

This change of 'Window Size' has to be done once, it is then memorized and you don't have to do it again! (this is how BGB behaves on my PC)

If you're experiencing fullscreen issues with the BGB Gameboy emulator, try pressing Alt + Enter to toggle fullscreen mode. If that doesn't work, check the emulator settings under the Options menu and ensure your display resolution and scaling settings are compatible. Updating your graphics drivers and running the emulator in compatibility mode (Windows XP or 7) might also help resolve fullscreen display problems. Let us know if it works! nulls brawl
