If you right click on the desk top and select Personalise you can chose
various settings but you may need the Display one.

Two things: (because you are not precise in your explanation of the problem)

1. Click on the desktop to give it focus. Then hold in the Control key
and rotate your mouse button

2. Right click on the Desktop and go to Personalize | Display and adjust
your resolution to the recommended settings for your particular monitor
