Re: Vista desktop background won't fit screen, extends above and below
I am having the same exact issue!

It's not an image size issue for the originating file like the previous solution given implies.
The "Desktop Background" section of the Personalization window is simply not working. The background image resolution is fine if you go to the picture file, right-click on it, and set the file as the background image. But like the original poster, I'd like to set my image to center as well. But it just won't center my image, just expands it. It's almost as if the computer thinks my monitor is 32" (seriously, I'm not over exaggerating) ... except that my desktop icons and taskbar seem to be just fine. This is the only topic that comes up when you google this problem as well. At least I know I'm not the only one with this problem.

Has the original poster found any solutions to this issue?
