internet windows too wide?

I picked up a computer at a yard sale . It is a Dell running XP. IT seems to work PK except the web pages are too wide. I can access the whole page ,but I have to continually scroll left to right to read the page. IT is not the monitor or other settings because the scroll bars on the side and bottom are there. Just the contents of the window are too large to fit.

Update:

I believe I located the problem. It looks as if the previous owner reinstalled windows and didn't install all the right drivers.I am going to reinstall drivers from the Dell website when I get time . Hopefully it solves the problem.
