You need to add a line in the screen section where it says:
'ViewPort    0 0' There's more than 1 so I guess add it after each 1.

Make it say:
'ViewPort    0 0'
'Something   800 600' or whatever your monitor will handle, experiment
with the numbers. This is not your resolution.

Sorry I can't remember for sure what 'Something' is. I think it could
be:'Virtual 800 600' but I'm not sure.
