Hello All, This has been bugging me for some
time: My XP Desktop has a 3/8 inch gray border on the left and right sides, and I'm
unable to "stretch" the Desktop to Full Screen using my mouse. Any suggestions?

--Thanks/rwiz

Did you try adjusting your monitor settings?

Laptop / desktop? LCD or Analog monitor?
