    I need windows XP Mode in windows 7 to startup in full screen mode.
    I have found the keystroke is ctrl+alt+break
    Is there a way i can write a script or macro or somthing and put it in the startup of xp mode?

    From this technet thread:

    Does your usage break rule this possibility out?

    That is not an option because i need intergration features disabled by default on startup.
    When you have intergration features off it will only maximize the window and not go into full screen unless you hit full screen from the action bar or hit ctrl+alt+break.
    This is why i was asking about a script or macro and not just closing it in full screen.
    If anyone knows how to make one please leave a reply, the closest thing i got was a command in rockwell software rsveiw 32 but there is no special command line for {BREAK} so i am left trying to figure out a script or posibly VB.

    not sure what that means, but probly not.

    I haven't tested this, but it should be saved as a .vbs file to try. It virtually presses Ctrl+Alt+Break.
    Code:
    Set oWSH = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
    oWSH.SendKeys "^%{BREAK}"
    If double-clicking it works, you can try setting it as a startup process.
