So on one of my old moniters there was a menu button and when pressed it would show you all the options (like color and brightness). One option was size which would could extend the screen size even if everything didn't fit inside the screen. My new monitor doesn't have the size option so I'm wondering, how do I extend my screen size and I don't mean the resolution, I mean stretch the screen.

Right click on your desktop, click on screen resolution, and edit it. If you can't find it, go to control panel, appearance and personalization, display, and screen resolution. Hope this helps!

That doesn't answer my question. I want to stretch the screen. I mean stretch it as far as possible. Just stretch it. I said I don't want to change the screen resolution, I want to stretch it. I'm trying to be as clear as possible but I don't think anyone is understanding what I want. Is it just not possible to do on my monitor?

On windows, you can only stretch as far as you can move the slider up. In games, you can stretch the screen as car as far and high as the game allows (as long as the resolution is supported).

You want to change the aspect ratio? If that is what you mean, that is controlled by the resolution. People are having a hard time understanding because you aren't being very clear on WHAT you want to stretch. To me it sounds like you mean you want to alter the aspect ratio, but maybe not.
