Start pressing buttons on your monitor to resize it until it fits. (You
could read the manual for it first but there's no fun in that.) Some
software for various video cards will allow you to resize the screen display
through them but, again, that's not as much fun as playing with the buttons
on the front of your monitor.

have you adjusted the monitor controls (i.e. width/height of the image on
screen - those buttons on the front of the monitor to adjust the settings).
