why do the edges of my screen shrink when i play wow or other fullscreen games?

Q: ok, so, im playing stepmania and i notice that it's like im looking through a big lens, the middle of the screen is fine, but the edges are smooshed together. its not a big problem in stepmania so i thought nothing of it. then i open up wow for the first time and the edges are so distorted that i can barely read what it says. like i said before the center looks fine but the edges seem smooshed (for lack of a better word) together. i have an old HP CRT monitor, please help me!

A: May want to check the resolution in the game to see if it's different than what you have set on your desktop. Since your computer doesn't do this all the time I'm pretty sure it's safe to say that it isn't your monitor screwing up.
