It might be the monitor you need to play around with.  I know that when I
had a dual booting machine whenever I changed from Windows to Linux, or
vice-versa I had to play around with the monitors horizontal and vertical
positioning and stretch settings.  Try playing around with those settings if
your monitor has them, it solved all my hassles.
