I just got a new 19' monitor for my PC (up from my old 14' one), and I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem. When I on the Internet, a page of a website can only fill half the screen, is there away to make the page fill the whole monitor?

Thanks in advance.

maybe the resolution is too high, or you might need to stretch the picture using the monitor controls on the front.

pour an ice cold glass of 7up directly into the vents on the top.

that loud crack and plume of smoke means the flux capacitor is reconfiguring the myer hoff lifters, to come into conjunction with the counter settings. 3 more minutes, and joy!



sorry.

Well I ain't got any 7up so there goes that plan : D

My screen resolution at the moment is 1376 X 768, any smaller (or larger) and the screen can't fit anything in. Does this help, or has it made the problem more confusing?

Is what you are looking for DeadMetal, then just decrease the resolution.

Yeah, I've tried going down to 800 X 600, but then the screen can't fit a whole page and everything gets bigger.

Keep it as it is, there's nothing you can do to change website sizes.

These forums only take up just over half of the page with my resolution (1400x1050.) You get used to it.

If the monitor is massive, keep the resolution massive, you can then get more on the screen and it looks better as everything isn't so blocky.
