Windows 10: Display cut off at bottom of the screen/taskbar

So the bottom of my monitor display is cut off. It is a Dell ST2010 monitor very old but still in working condition. It has nothing to do with screen resolution btw. Can this problem be fixed or do i have to buy a new monitor? Any suggestions? Thanks


This is how it looks now, the problem started occurring like 3 months ago







this is how its suppose to look when i take a screen shot of it

Monitor Display Slightly Cut Off

Display Specs

• 2560x1440 Qnix 2710 Montior
• NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980

The bottom part of my display is cut off. The cut is very slight and I can't see the blue highlighed line that shows an app currently running in the taskbar.

Also notifications get cut in half because they display at the bottom right corner of the screen.

A partial solution to this is using the NVIDIA control panel to resize the display to 2560x1426, but that makes the font blurry.

I have the latest drivers for my graphics card.

Taking a screenshot, shows the accurate display without the cut off so I took a picture.

I did not have this problem on Windows 8.1 or 7

Thank you

 

Bottom of taskbar application box cut off

Hi,

I realize the inconvenience you are facing. Let me help you in resolving the issue.

I appreciate if you can provide us the following information to help us understand the issue better.

• How often does this happens?
• Does this happen while using any particular application?
• Does Auto-hide the taskbar enabled under taskbar properties?
• Did you made any changes to your PC?

Right-click on the Taskbar and select Properties. Under Task bar and Start Menu Properties,
ensure that Auto-hide the taskbar check is cleared. If it checked, then try to clear it and click Apply/OK. Now see if it works.

Keep us posted on Windows related queries and we will be happy to assist you further.

Thank you.

 

I am unsure of that particular model of monitor but somewhere in the menu on the monitor itself there should be a setting to make it fit properly on the screen, if not you can do it via software in the nvidia control panel under display>adjust desktop size and position *Biggrin

 

^^^^^^Yep. First try adjust vertical postion:

Electronic page 17.

 

i could adjust it using vertical position but that's just a temporarily fix. i want to fix it permanently because the cut off can rise higher as you can see above if you compare the two images.








Also notice that onthe left bottom corner theres is a white color onthe bottom display . I think theres something wrong with the monitor internally so is there a way to fix it back to to normal?

 

Oh I didn't notice that before, I think your right your monitor is probably on the way out unfortunately...

 

now it looks like this can barely see the task bar. Anyone knows what causes this problem? or will it eventually happen to all pc monitors that are really old
