ATI gfx - how to get it to fill the screen properly? - Page 2

rooq · 2008-09-01, 21:31

1920*1080p on the Ati mobility is a huge pain and I think ATI has a huge bug in their drivers. For me adding a custom resolution (1912*1076) made everything magically disappear and resulted in a 1:1 pixelmapping of the same resolution (GPU-scaling and Centered timings = really small black borders)

On Cat 8.2 it worked only in combination with 'just scan' and 50 Hz or 24 hz Refresh (which defaulted back to 60hz after a reboot and black borders with the just scan option enabled.

I think 1080P60 has been broken on the Ati's for ages! (search AVS forums for it)

Hope this helps

I have the same TV and an ATI card. Set it to Just Scan. Then go into ATI Control Panel and change the Overscan.
