When I play games on my WIndows 8 tablet, how can I make them full-screen instead of appearing in a small box?

When I play games on my Windows 8 tablet that were designed for previous versions of Windows, they appear in a miniature window in the middle of the screen. It's a bit like a small window in a full-screen black window, whereas I'd expect the game to be
full screen. Is there anything I can do to make the game window expand to the full screen size?
Thanks!

Enough Waiting, Here's How to Make Your Own Windows 8 Tablet
By McKinley Noble, PCWorld
Although CES didn't exactly signal the advent of Windows 8, the touchscreen-centric OS is definitely on quite a few developers' minds. Of course, until the complementing tablets finally come out of hiding, everyone else is left twiddling their thumbs. But if you happen to have special access to the preview version of the system software, you can simply create your own Windows 8 tablet -- from spare parts, no less.
As shown over at Instructables, one tech-savvy modder turned an old-looking Toshiba laptop into a working Windows 8 tablet with little more than a screwdriver, tape, some glue, and a couple small planks of wood to give everyt

I haven't heard anyone mention this in regards to the Consumer Preview. I hope it's still there as there are some interesting new features to '8'

Windows 8 PRO - How long before activation required

Hi there
I want to try out one or two options on a Virtual machine with Windows 8 Pro. There's no problem entering a product key at install time but is there anyway to stop it automatically trying to activate as soon as you have an Internet connection - and how long does it give you before requiring activation.
W7 gave you 30 days (usually) or in rare cases 3 days.
3 Days is fine for what I want to test -- I usually use Windows 8 enterprise which has multiple activations / VL so it's not an issue for that product.
Any Windows 8 PRO users here who can give answers on this one.
This seems a bit of a bo bo by Ms -- surely Ms knows people want to test stuff with a VM -- so why did they 1) enforce a product key at install time

If you're considering buying one of these types of Windows 8 machines, you should know that they aren't ideal for heavy processing loads. Because they use an Intel Atom Z2760 CPU, they have more in common with the netbooks of old than normal laptops that use more powerful CPUs such as the Intel Core i3 and Core i5
