+Use the function @code{w32-send-sys-command}.  For example, you can
+put the following in your @file{.emacs} file:
+
+@lisp
+(add-hook 'term-setup-hook
+          #'(lambda () (w32-send-sys-command ?\xF030)))
+@end lisp
+
+To avoid the slightly distracting visual effect of Emacs starting with
+its default frame size and then growing to fullscreen, you can add an
+@samp{Emacs.Geometry} entry to the Windows registry settings (see
+@pxref{(emacs)X Resources}).
+
+To compute the correct values for width and height, first maximize the
+Emacs frame and then evaluate @code{(frame-height)} and
+@code{(frame-width)} with @kbd{M-:}.
