The newer versions of Live CD's (such as K/Ubuntu) don't run so well on older boxes, so the small linux editions are better either way for filesize and compatibility.

Yes, edit the batch file, find the line that actually executes the program, and add -full-screen to the end of it. You can also press ctrl-alt-f while it's running.
