Windows 10: Brown/Yellow 1 1/2" mark on left side of Screen

Recently brown/yellow spot about 1 1/2 inches in length has appeared on the left side of my screen. Looks like a heat mark. Can this be serviced? Is this going to affect the operation of the device? Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.Joseph

1 of 2 new monitors not full screen


I have a gigabyte MB with on-board graphics, 1 vga and 1 DVI as outputs.

I have 2 new asus monitors with 1 vga input and 2 hdmi inputs.

The vga to vga connection to monitor 1 produces full screen on 1920x1080 (recommended)

Asus furnished a cable DVI to HDMI. This connection (monitor 2) leaves about 1/2 inch blank space on either side and about 1/4 inch top and bottom. 1920x1080 (recommended). 1280x1024 setting fills the screen, but display looks stretched.

Any suggestions appreciated.
