Windows 10: Window border on my games even when I'm full screen

Hey folks...


I was just wondering if there is any way to remove the window border whilst I'm playing a game on full screen?


For example, when I'm playing Forza Street, it is not true full screen on my second monitor as I can see the window border with the title of the game on the left and then the three usual options on the right, collapse, minimize and close.


Any idea how to remove this?

I thought it would just disappear as I am using a controller but it stays visible.


Any help is much appreciated.

:)

 

Black borders on screen

Hi Lyn,

It is true that the challenges that you’re having with the black borders on your computer screen might be related to the Display Settings of your monitor just like what DaveM121 was suggesting. To better assist you with your concern, we need you to answer
the following questions:

• Which type of display cable are you using? ( VGA, DVI, HDMI cable).
• Were you able to update your display adapter drivers?

Looking forward to your response.

 

Black Border at Boot Screen

Hi all, when my monitor is connected to my HD 5750 via DVI cable i see a black border (about an inch thick) around all corners of my screen until I see windows login screen. I also see this border in safe mode and bios settings screen (the resolution is fine). However there is no such border if I connect it with VGA cable. My card natively support vesa resolution of 1920x1080 and so is the resolution of my LG monitor. I know technically its called under-scanning/scaling but how do I fix it. ATI CCC only helps after windows has booted. I need something that can fix this under scanning issue before winnows has booted. I can't play with monitor settings on digital input. Is it my gpu or monitor?
Thanks in advance
