    If I get this issue in the future, this video will help me. Thank you!

  2. Will you kindly produce one of your videos which will review System Mechanic Pro Ultimate Defence please.
    Thank you in anticipation.

    I had this problem recently and what you did in the video really helped

    when your dragging the sliders in the intel software, you can clearly see the desktop size changing in the video

    I had this exact problem when using a Panasonic TV years ago. I used the Nvidia control panel and enabled the Desktop Resizing at the time ๐Ÿ––๐Ÿ‘

    This method can give some text aliasing effects. There is a better way to fix this at the TV end. Go to Settings > Picture > Aspect Ratio > Just Scan, and set it to "On". This will remove the TV's default overscan and give 1:1 pixel mapping for the best picture. I have the 48" version of the same set. Most sets have a similar option, though the exact name varies a bit between brands.

  7. Or, usually you can find a setting named Full in aspect ratio settings on your TV. On an Android TV for example, Picture > Aspect ratio > Full.

    Hey, Brian!! Thanks for this!! I did experiment with it before on my TV. I also follow guides for the exact TV model that give you suggestions on what your settings should be at. For the purpose of this video, they recommend that Overscan on the TV should be left off. But this is still good advice for people who want to get their display just right.

    That said: if you prefer Overscan left on, try these:

    1. If you have an older Intel card and the Intel Graphics Control Panel, go to the Display, the first option you should see.

    2. Next, make sure that Select Display is set to your external monitor. Then choose Customize Aspect Ratio. Then you go from there. Make a note of which percentages you decide on should things get changed. I'm on an older card that hasn't been updated since 2017, but it still does the job.

    I hope that helps!!

    Great tip! I have often encountered this issue while connecting projectors and desktop computers to TVs. Another option is to disable 'Overscan' or equivalent in resolution settings on the TV itself.

    I had this problem a long time ago when I got my first TV with HDMI input, to fix it I had to use the VGA connector instead if I remember. Otherwise I had to make sure no windows were bigger than the visible area of the screen, at the time there was no way to adjust overscan/underscan via software.

    My 14 year old LG? No problems at all. Is it just me Bri? ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

  12. Reb Mordechai

    I had the same problem. I solved it by changing the screen resolution to bigger than recommended then do a restart.
    Then do a SCAN for a new monitor in the same page and then switch it back to the recommended resolution. It seems to be a problem when you change monitors, Windows 10/11 does not always recognise that you have changed screens. Your solution however is way cooler than mine.

    I had this problem when I purchased a new monitor the scalling was off and it took me ages to find a way to fix it, Thanks for the great video Brian

  14. dave

    thanks I just did the same on amd system , could have put it online yesterday took a good 10 mins to sus it out .People tend to forget

  15. Nick Galea

    In the new Intel Graphics Command Centre update, they have removed the screen recorder option. I don't like it.

  16. debeeriz

    l find just turning the monitor on and off once windows has booted up brings back the task bar, but if this works on my monitor, it will save me doing that

  17. Nick Poverman

    I have never seen this problem even with televisions used as displays for computers.

  18. MurderChickenXL

    If only I could do this while in my laptop's Bios. I don't use the built-in display and it cuts off 1/3 of the page using my gigantic tv. Yes, LG is now my favorite display manufacturer!
