  1. lockscreen and desktop screen became 2-3 inches shorter on the right side


    I recently had to do a reset on my win 10. Before the reset all displays filled the entire screen. After the reset all my displays became 2-3" s shorter on the right side ( both up and down as well as from right to left). Now there is a solid black space instead of any diplay filling the entire screen. This is the first time I had to do a reset and I have checked the settings. I must have missed something?

    :)

  3. Screen Image shifted 3 inches to the right

    When I turn on the computer (windows 10) (upgraded from vista to 7 - then 7 to 10) - the splash screen (some random nature scene) is positioned perfectly on the screen - then it goes to the login screen, at this point the screen image has moved about 3
    inches to the right. Now I know there are other posts about the screen moving to the right, but I continue, If I play Command and Conquer (red alert) etc. the screen then reverts back to perfectly placed on the screen. I have been to get updated drivers. I
    can't seem to locate an 'auto' mode on the Samsung tv.

    lockscreen and desktop screen became 2-3 inches shorter on the right side

    Problem aligning desktop to monitor screen

    Installed Windows 10 2 days ago. Desktop is shifted 2 inches to left, obscuring left icon column. Browser screen is also expanded to left so that approx 2 inches of left hand side of screen cannot be viewed.

    Last answer to similar problem was " Right Click a blank area of the Desktop - Graphics Properties - look for Geometry settings
    (PC's and laptops)"' Trying this reveals no selection for "Graphic Properties". Search for "Graphic Properties" results in "No match".

    Any suggestion??
