center of the screen. There is no cursor.

Change to the monitors native resolution suggested in the manual.
Likely - higher than what you are trying to use and a differnt refresh rate
possibly.

Has someone been messing with the OSD?
I have seen the screen size manually adjusted like that.
Many screens have a ZOOM function that will shrink/enlarge it.
