Older monitors from that era often did not have the "smarts" to adjust for nor remember image size when switching from one resolution to another. Usually there were knobs, buttons, or dials on the front or bottom edge of the monitor (and rarely on the back) to manually adjust the image both vertically and horizontally to fill the screen.
