Hey folks,
I recently bought and installed MM8 but I'm having a problem with the screen. It pops up as a very small window surrounded by a broad black border. I have tried toggling the windowed/full screen settings and the hardware/software accelerated settings to no effect. This happens regardless. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I really love this game but don't want to have to squint to see it.

Possibly relevant data:
1080p native resolution HDTV for monitor
GTX 560 Ti (MSI Hawk)
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Just tried MM9 and have the same problem there, in case that helps identify the problem.

Nvidia Control Panel->Display->Adjust Desktop size and position->Use NVIDIA scaling with fixed aspect ratio.
What is happening is that the game displays in its native resolution, which is too low for your monitor, and the graphic card doesn't scale it. You might need to first set a non-native resolution before you can change the scaling option, but this should be what you need.
