    Resolution/Aspect Ratio Problems...?


    For my work I need to take screen captures of maps to put together in a separate program. I started noticing that some portions of the images would line up perfectly while others would be way off, no matter what I scaled them to. Could this be a problem with my Aspect Ratio/Resolution settings? I have it set to the recommended Resolution setting. Any ideas?

    Aspect ratio

    After windows 10 upgrade patch, the monitor is stretched sideways indicating a problem with aspect ratio. How can this be fixed? There are no proper screen resolution options on display settings.
