There's a fullscreen switch for the player shortcut - check this page
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...parameters.asp

Copy and past the existing media player shortcut into your Startup
folder. The Right click it, choose Properties and in the box labelled
"Target",add /fullscreen at the end of the path to media player
(separated by a a space)
