thanks, the only downside of this is the taskbar is still visible if it's
not set to autohide.
I don't mind the user tasking to other applications, most directx games
still allow even that.

Set your form's border to none, controlbox=false, maximizebox=false,
minimizebox=false, windowstate=maximized, topmost=true and set the form's
text (i.e., caption) = nothing.
This will make your form take up the entire screen - but the user will
still be able to access the taskbar and start menu by pressing the 'Window'
key on their keybord. There are ways to prevent that but I don't know any
offhand.
