Have you checked the default settings of the DOS Window by right-clicking on
the title bar in the DOS Window (assuming you are not in Full Screen mode)
and selecting Defaults?

Perhaps the title is misleading, but I have a problem between two
machines
that are set up pretty much alike (same software, hardware, etc.):
On machine A, a DOS box opens on my desktop when starting update batch
files -
that is - the usual black-background, white-text window that displays the
update's progress. This is good, and what I expect to happen.
On the other hand, machine B starts the process by switching the screen
to a
full-screen blue-background-yellow-text display that's reminiscent of the
old
BSOD screens of Windows Past. It's unsettling at best, and I'd like
Machine B
to act like its sister.
The odd thing is if I create a shortcut on the desktop for CMD.EXE, the
black
DOS window appears. If I run CMD.EXE from the start button, the blue
screen
pops up.
Is there some reg setting or such that can be adjusted to my liking?
Googling for this problem has been fruitless so far.
Thanks for any help you can muster.
