Guess I'll still stick to the weird resolutions.
The next step then is to try another resolution on your monitor settings until you find one it does like, and/or one of the 4:3 standard monitor resolutions the game is designed for (e.g. 1600x1280 should fit, with a small margin of desktop visible on the sides).

Also - you do have the task bar in the normal position at the bottom of the screen with auto-hide off, as outlined in the Game Guide, I presume?. Auto-hide nukes the screen as it returns an erroneous desktop size to the WinVFX graphics library.
