You have probably set the screen resolution too high.

If using XP right click on the desktop and chose properties.

On the Display Properties window select the Settings tab.

In the bottom right is a screen resolution slider, move that up and down and press "apply" till the black borders go away.

Vista is similar but I have not got it to hand to give exact instructions.
>bottom right

Sorry that should be bottom left

Here is a pictue of the window

Note if you are using a laptop or a TFT screen then it will have a native resolution and the screen will look best set at that resolution.

The documentation for the screen will tell you what the "best" resolution is.
