That sounds like just a monitor adjustment.  You should be able to shift 
the monitor over to the left (as well as expand it either horizontally 
or vertically, etc.) via buttons on your monitor.  Some are more 
logically designed that others - typically you'll have to go through a 
menu to find what you're looking for, or else there is a row or lights 
with tiny pictures over them?  Are you running it through a KVM switch?  
If so, then - depending on the KVM switch - it'll either remember the 
settings for both (or all four, whatever) computers, but if it doesn't, 
you'll  have to readjust each time you switch from one computer to the 
other.

PS  Since yours seems to be a squeaky-new install, then you probably 
should have started a new thread for this....

PPS - I'll start a new thread.....
