Desktop is small.

[Guest]

I noticed only 2 days back(don't know when it happened) that my desktop is
about 1cm smaller than the screen on both sides-Right and Left
margins!!.Otherwise the monitor is working fine.
My config is :- Samsung SyncMaster 753s 17" monitor 1024 by 768 Resolution &
75Hz Ref rate, AMD Athlon 2000XP sp2 on Asus A7N266 motherboard with onboard
N vidia graphics.
I had recently installed some games which is all that has happened out of
ordinary.
I have tried altering the monitor settings with out any results, so it has
to be something with the registry settings??
Please advice

Monitor scan width is strictly a function of the hardware setting. The
"registry" has no bearing on the inability of the monitor driver coils
to pull the beam the full width. reducing the refresh rate may allow you
to further adjust the monitor horizontal width to a wider setting. But
if the monitor is failing, it will continue to get worse.
