Non-Daz question that relates to Daz :P

This is more of a tech support type of question I guess but I figured with all the skill and experiance here, someone might be able to help me solve the mystery. 

I have a spare room at home. I put a desk and a chair in it and call it my office. On this desk is a 32" flat screen that used to be in my living room (got a newer TV, no big deal, just sayin) that I now use as my monitor. I prefer it because, well, it's bigger. My problem is it gets REALLY hot upstairs in the summer so I'm obliged to set up shop downstairs where it's cooler. Also my dog gets pissy if I'm at the desk too long and prefers when I sit on the couch so he can sit next to me. No, I don't think of him as my child. But when you're trying to get a pose right and a lab/hound is slamming his snout into your elbow, it gets annoying.

During these times, I use a standard monitor. My problem is that any picture I render on the TV/Monitor appears full screen on both it and the Monitor/Monitor. But any picture I render on the Monitor/Monitor shows up smaller on the TV/Monitor. So when scrolling through a set you have a dozen full screen, another dozen at reduced size that need to be re-rendered and then what ever else I did on the TV back to full screen. And it looks like hell. Does anyone know what causes this or how to avoid it? Short of just hauling my TV up and down the stairs everytime the weather or my dog want's to be an A-hole.

Thanks for any thoughts or ideas.

    You probably have your render settings set to render the size and aspect ratio of your current viewport, which would be larger on a higher resolution screen. Change that in the Render Settings pane to specifiy pixel size dimensions for your render. Select a size large enough to fill the larger monitor. You can render at that larger size, even when using the smaller monitor.

    I agree with this.
