    monitor display size

    Hi Kathy,

    This issue with monitor display can be caused by screen resolution problems.

    As an initial troubleshooting step, try changing the screen resolution by following the steps below:

    • Right-click on the desktop screen.
    • Select Display settings.
    • Click Display.
    • Under Resolution, click on the drop-down menu and change the screen resolution.

      Note: You can select the most recommended resolution (1920 x 1080) if applicable and see if the issue will persist.

    Let us know if you have any other concerns.
