When you press the button to maximize the window, what happens?

Do you have the resolution set correctly?

Try downloading the newest drivers: http://support.asus.com/download/dow...Language=en-us

Has this problem always existed, or has this just started?

Have you installed or updated anything yet?

If the problem just started, have you tried a system restore?
