When I start a Windows program, a blue desktop pops open, then the program starts. But on some programs, (usually games) the game window is larger than the desktop, so that there are areas that need to be clicked in order for the game to run, but you can't get to them because of the size of the desktop. Is there a way to go fullscreen? I can re-size the desktop, but the game window stays the same size. Thanks!
You'll go fullscreen if an application is supposed to go fullscreen and you're not using the virtual desktop. You can configure your virtual desktop settings in winecfg. Turning it off will be fine, or even just better, for most apps.

it also depends what OS your using... but the virtual desktop (if enabled) will always resize to what its told to size to, even if your monitor cannot run that size. If you game is running too big, you can go in the game options and tell the game to run at a smaller resolution, and the virtual desktop will resize down with it.
