Try the recall function of your monitor. The procedure is different for different models. This should restore your monitor screen sizr to the factory default. It is not evidently a software problem.

@koolbluez
i dint change any of the display settings
You must get option to degauss using buttons on monitor panel.
i tried to degauss pressing both brightness + contrast buttons simultaneously, the screen was shaken & blurred for a moment, but nothin happ. after that.
^^Another option to automatically adjust horizontal and vertical dimensions of screen is there in monitor controls on Compaq monitors. Check if it is there on yours.
i hav the option to adjust the horizontal setting through monitor buttons, but that control is not working.
well, only some are not working (incl. horizntal,), rest controls are working.
A screen capture / photo will serve good.... is it regd a change in display properties... or is it regd monitor options...?
check the resolution in Display settings to 800 X 600 mode(if not already set)... and send a pic to us..
