  1. My monitor has borders when the resolution is suppose to fill


    I have to use a VGA to HDMI adapter, and after I increased the resolution and opened a game, borders have appeared for a resolution that should fill the screen. I do not how to fix this. I had a temporary fix after uninstalling all my drivers from NVIDIA and re-installing, inbetween, it was filled with the resolution I use now, any recommendations?

  2. border on monitor

    thank you, I appreciate your help. However, as I mentioned inmy initial email, "I have 2 monitors that are working. the Left monitor has a 2 inch border on the right side. the resolution is 1440x900. If
    use the recommended 1600x 900resolution the windows icon disappears from the right side of the screen.

    the "recommended" setting is worse.

    any other suggestions?

    Display/resolution doesn't fit monitor borders


    Hi guys

    Upon upgrading to windows 10 I've noticed that my display size got smaller. screen resolution does not match my screen monitor borders. Resolution is currently set to 1920X1080 and I still have gaps of 1-2 cm from monitor borders, resolution doesn't fully fit my monitor as it use to in windows 8.1.

    Methods I've tried solving this so far:

    - Deleting graphic drivers from windows device manger and let windows set it own drives
    - Playing around with windows global scaling (doesn't help only the icons/apps gets bigger)
    - Installing fresh updated drivers from Intel/Nvidia
    - Playing around with all resolution sizes and options

    any ideas on how to fix it?
