Recording video on a smaller screen? Need some answers.

Hey guys, got a quick question, but it's rather unspecific, so using search engines got me nothing. So, I've been tasked to make a series of videos (PC stuff related, so screen capture). I can do that pretty easily, but I've got a slight issue, right now I'm using my laptop and the screen is only 1366x768. How will that scale on monitors with a larger resolution? Is there any way around this issue? I don't really want to use black borders or anything like that, so some tips would be great. (Alternatively, I can hook up my laptop to my TV, and just use that, I don't know).

Thanks.
