  1. Windows Desktop display using a 26" TV as a monoitor


    Hi,

    I have connected a 26 inch TV as a monitor for my Windows 10 Desktop PC.

    The screen image appears too large with part of the Task Bar just barely showing on the bottom. I need to reduce the size of the screen image. How do I do this?

    :)

    Stuck with TV set as default display

    Hi,
    While trying to fix displaying of my desktop win10 desktop on my samsung smart tv, I set the tv as the default display. Now, when I switch the tv on, I loss control on the performance of my pc. The desktop pc shows all the icons of my desktop, but any step I do, running a browser, opening outlook, etc. show only on my tv. A real nuisance.
    I can open display setting, but since my act shows only on the tv, which is located in another room, all my efforts to change setting and configure my pc as the default screen failed.
    When I switch the tv off, I find no way to change the display configuration.
    How can I regain control on my pc?

  3. connect windows 10 desktop to new roku tv as a wireless display.

    So I have 2 roku tvs that I can connect to from my desktop with no issues. They both show up under projectors on the connected device list and are both on the other device list. My new roku tv is a different story. I can not get it to show up as a projector
    on the device list. It shows up under the other device list and doesnt have the miracast display driver, only the generic software device driver. How do I fix this issue and get the computer to connect to the new tv? I have a custom built windows desktop running
    windows 10.
