Hi Mark - - This is a monitor adjustment.  Read the literature that
came with your monitor, about sizing.  I hope this helps.

Hey Mark,

If you don't have a knob on your monitor to adjust the screen size, many
video cards are coming out with utilities that will adjust screen size. If
yours doesn't have a utility to do this maybe you could check into getting
a different video card - not a great solution but better than buying a new
monitor!  =)  HTH
