Hi people.
I just installed Windows xp on to my computer. Unfortunately, the window does not expand to the whole screen, and leaves a black strip on the right of my desktop. I have tried changing the sceen size at the settings and the resolution, but nothing seems to work.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers.
