My ‘LG Studioworks ‘monitor’ allows for different adjustments, size, colour position etc…none will allow fitting the web pages to the screen.

      As far as #1 goes, you can go into Start /  Control Panel / 'Taskbar/Start Menu' and there you can look in the list and set it to 'hide' so it wont show in the system tray....

      2.  Right click on the desktop; click properties; click settings; adjust the screen resolution.

      3.  Yes.
