[QUOTE="gordon55, post: 649478, member: 56466"] Hi2all, maybe there are more folks like me who are pretty annoyed by the ugly overscan reset if you change the resolution either in CCC or by Windows or even by MP's automatic refresh rate changer. Everytime the overscan is reset so that you get a black frame, means no fullscreen. After looking around in several forums, I found at least a workaround (see also [URL="http://forums.amd.com/game/messageview.cfm?catid=260&threadid=107707"]CCC HDMI Underscan/Overscan settings not saving [/URL], last post dated 08/17/2010 03:34 PM ) ------------------------ 1) Explicitly select and apply the resolution and frequency (mode) you want to change: Right click on your desktop, select Screen Resolution. Select Advanced Settings. Select "List All Modes". Select and apply the mode you want. 2) Then open (or have open) CCC and set the overscan to 0. 3) After hitting apply in CCC, reboot immediately (don't change the resolution!) If you repeat this process for all of the resolutions (AND frequencies) that you want to override the overscan on, it seems to save them (YEAH!) ----------------------- I did that on my Vista32-HP-SP2 .... and works !! Then I found the relevant reg-keys. [LIST] [*]CCC saves the resolutions under [I]HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Video\{.....}\0000[/I] where the {....} is system specific. [*]f.e. the 1920x1080 with 50Hz is saved in binary key DALR6 DFPI 21920x1080x0x50 [*]double-click the binary key for your resolution and look for "08" in line 020, then change it to "00" [*]do this with all saved resolutions and you'r done [/LIST] What I finally did was seeting once the resolution and changed Overscan in CCC, then rebooted, then activated all other resolutions I am using and finally changed the reg-keys as described above. Hoping this may help others as well. [/QUOTE]
