HDTV Screen Resolution Help
 

I hooked up my computer to my Sony 46" HDTV. I am using a 5770 Radeon video card in my Computer.

The problem I am having is that the picture from the computer doesn't stretch to fill the screen. There is a black border all the way around the screen.

I stretched the image in the TV menu settings so that it would fill the display. But now it is stretched when I watch my other inputs as well.

Is there any way to have it set up so the display will fill the entire screen and I don't have to stretch the picture in my TV menu.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

r u using the sony as a clone? if so it'll be runing at what ever ur main monitor's resolution is at which im sure is not 1080p

if ur using the sony as the main monitor then make sure the resolution is at 1080p

The sony will be the main monitor. The resolution showing on the computer was 1920 x 1080.

what kind of cable r u using to hook u the pc to the tv?

Are you duplicating the screens? With my setup, I had the same problem. On the computer, I had to set the resolution differently in order to display everything properly on the tv.

If you have your TV set to "original" it should go pixel by pixel hence filling the entire screen.

And remember to setup the correct resolution in your PC.

Make sure you set the scaling to 0. It happens to my Toshiba as well every time I reinstall the video driver.

I will try the suggestions posted by you guys.

I am using an HDMI cable from the computer to my Receiver.

I had the same problem with my 5770's for a while, it has to do with the underscan settings which should be set to zero. It was fixed in recent driver updates and I haven't had the problem since.

Ill try that great. I haven't installed new drivers yet. Just what came with the video card.
