If you are sure that your visitors will always use the Splash/Intro page to access your site then you can use Javascript to detect the screen res and redirect.

Note!
People may have javascript disabled.
People may not use the Splash/Intro page to access your site and find the correct pages.
You should really redesign the site for maximum efficency. Design for max of 800x600 or even better, use Percentage Widths.

see this (http://wsabstract.com/script/cutindex8.shtml) for free scripts that will redirect based on resolution.

Just remember, in addition to the other cautions, not everyone uses full screen when they visit sites.
