AFAIK, your problem is neither new nor soluble: what's happening is that your pixelsize is too large for the default windowsize to fit within the screen boundaries--either set a higher resolution or live with it. The problem is not that your virtual resolution is too high, it's that your screen resolution is too low: however, you might get better results if you set your virtual resolution higher than your actual screen: you'd at least be able to navigate to the parts that don't show up on your screen. Sorry I can't be of more help--it's happened to me on more than one occasion :(
