Somehow, I managed to get loads of pop-ups and adverts flooding my Google Chrome, so I re-installed Windows 8. Prior to the re-installation, my monitor was at 1920 x 1080, however, after it finished installing, it won't go back to it, without having an annoying black border surrounding my screen :'( How can I get it back to 1920 x 1080

You need to install drivers for your motherboard and graphics card (chipset, sound, lan/wireless, video). Windows tries to install basic versions, you want to go to the manufacturers website of your motherboard/laptop and get them.
