[QUOTE="Owlsroost, post: 476052, member: 83973"] Loosing the edges of the display is due to 'overscan' - this is standard on TV's (but it can be disabled on some of them). Both nvidia and ATi control panels have settings to compensate for this provided they think it's a TV which is connected. When you have a display via DVI/HDMI (i.e. nVidia), run Moninfo - [url=http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm]EnTech Taiwan | Utilities | Monitor Asset Manager[/url] - and check the reported display sizes etc (or save the report to a file and attach it here). It sounds like the ATi card bios is not detecting the TV via DVI at boot time, and hence defaulting (probably) to VGA output. Tony [/QUOTE]
