    Windows 10 2nd monitor resolution zoomed in

    i recently updated and installed windows 10 on my laptop and everything was looking good except for my second monitor(Tv screen) .the screen is zoomed in and i only see half of the taskbar(the bottom of the tv literally stops at
    the very middle of the taskbar)

    I've tried every resolutions with with every tv screen settings and none seem to make it fit. just before upgrading to windows 10, windows 8.1 had my 2nd screen fit the computer(except for a black border around the screen) does
    anyone know what i should do to fix it?

    My 2nd monitor zoomed in and I can't edit the resolution settings

    NEW Windows 10 install, not recognizing 2nd Monitor or setting correct resolution

    I just installed a Windows 10 (Creator's Edition) on a NEW SSD to my HP xw4600 Workstation. Below are the problems I'm experiencing:

    • The OS hasn't recognized the fact I have 2 monitors.
      • From Display Settings the Detect function can't
        find the 2nd monitor
      • Both monitors show same content

    From the Device Manager I've removed Device and now it is showing Generic PnP Monitor
    as Working Properly.

    Additionally, neither screen is displaying at the proper resolution. Dell U2211H (1920 x 1080).

    • Display Settings has the screen set to 1024 x 768
    • The highest avaiable option is 1280 x 1024
    • Advanced Display Settings is not listed as an option
    • Cannot extend the desktop
    • Windows + P indicates Your PC cannot project another PC try reinstalling the driver or using a different video card

    The current card installed is a ATI FirePro V5600. After visiting the manufacturers website and not finding a driver listed for this card for Win10 I found a tool to remove the device, its driver, and all associated registry entries to let
    Windows install it's Display Adapter which the Device Manager is now indicating is
    Working Properly.

    None of the steps of taken thus far has had a positive effect. I'm at a loss...what do I need to do to correct these issues?

    Thank you.
