Dual Screen Help

[joshlete]

I found this really old monitor in my garage. I added it to my computer to make it dual screen. But I am having trouble configuring everything. It was works pretty much normally except for a few things I don't know about.

1. The older screen has smaller words and its hard to read. Is there a way to adjust the size of the wording without changing the resolution? I want it at 1280x1024. But, I don't want to change the word size on my first screen.

2. When I am watching a video from netflix or youtube, it wont let me use the second monitor without bringing the video from full screen to normal screen. Also, when I am playing a game on the first screen and I try using the second screen, the game from the first screen minimize down and wont let me go back up, rendering the second screen useless.

I am pretty sure I had a few others questions, but these are my main concerns. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

I don't know much about dual screen but for reading web pages, you just hold control and scroll to make the text bigger.

Yeah, I already know about that. It only makes files and such bigger but not the wording.
