  I fixed the magnification problem with the xorg.conf file and the
  monitor is now set to 1280x1024.  However, minimized icons are still
  way off the screen and I can't get to them.  If I grab xterm with
  the mouse pointer it will go off the screen on the bottom and right
  side so the window is larger than the screen.  How can this be
  fixed?

Go back to your xorg config and set the viewport. You could also try
xrandr. Again, this is not an Openbox issue.
