    Windows 10 not filling the screen on my monitor?


    Hi

    Can anyone tell me how to get Windows 10 to give me a full screen view?
    I have set the resolution to 1920 by 1080 the same as my monitor but the image doesn't fill my screen.

    I tried to make a screen shot but of course it only covers the area that's shown, so it doesn't do much good. LOL

    Any way I have about a black border 1" on the bottom and top, 2" on the ends, around the outside of the Windows, window, on my monitor

    "Photos" Screen Saver Options

    I recently [yesterday] purchased a Surface Pro (5), and with it comes Windows 10. [to this point, I had been using a Windows 7 laptop].

    I've set up my (Windows 10 default 'Photos') screen saver, and it seems to actually work [cool], but the photos don't fill the screen. On the Windows 7 machine, the screen saver filled the screen with the photos, and there was a slow panning effect.

    Is there an option to a) ask the screen saver to "fill" the screen with the photos and b) ask the screen saver program to pan on the photos?

    Desk top background photo

    Since loading Windows 10 my desk top background photo does not now fill the whole screen, as in previous versions of Windows, but instead there is a black boarder around the image.

    How can I fix this so the photo fills the whole screen?

    You need to download the display drivers, my nvidia ones came from windows update.
