What did you do to it to get rid of the black bars?
To set the resolution & text size go to Start - Control Panel - Appearance & Personalization & click on Adjust Screen Resolution. You probably need to set the highest resolution, and you may need to change the text dpi - click on the How do I get the best display link & then on Make the text on your screen larger or smaller.

You are officially a genius.

It seems to hsve done the trick, when I changed resolution.

Thank you for replying Rusty,
my faith in MN is restored!
