Well, the description does appear to claim 1080p native res, that's what I'm talking about. Whenever a TV or monitor in the UK is described as "1080p" or "Full HD", it always has a panel resolution of 1920x1080, guaranteed.

If on the other hand, these rules don't apply in America, then yeah the TV might well have a much lower native resolution. :ohwell:

Yeah but if it don't say full HD it can mean watching TV though cable say at 1920x1080 or blu ray but with a computer it will not support 1920x1080 and at best will do 1080i if your lucky, which is why i ended up returning a Vizio and why i ended up with the TOSHIBA TV i have today.

Make sure your bios is up to date:
BIOS Update [RYBDWi35.86A]
Version: 0353 (Latest) Date: 12/20/2015

BIOS Update Instructions for Boards and Kits

And, you are using the latest driver:
Graphics: Intel® HD Graphics Driver for Windows 7*/8..1*/10* for Intel® NUC
Version: 15.40.13.4331 (Latest) Date: 12/17/2015

What make TV and what output/input are you using?

Thanks for the reply. I have updated the video driver and that didn't do it. I saw there was a bios update but haven't done it yet. I will try that when I get back home.

As for my TV make, it is a sony bravia kdl-46nx810.

But like I said it was working fine on windows 7 but stopped working properly on windows 10.
 
you guys seriously bumped my post from 2011 and proceeded to hijack it.. nice lol

good title, but get over it.

Lets face it what harm will it do and it's not the 1st time this threads been bumped.
 
I have updated the firmware on the TV thinking the same thing. It sadly didn't work either :( but I'll let you know if something happens after I update the bios.

I found a driver for the TV for the computer but it was a fake. Do you know where I could get the driver?

That is the .inf file... some devices use them to let windows know it's capabilities; however, I cannot locate one for that TV model.
Windows should get the info from the EDID table in the TV and post it in the registry. It might had gotten corrupted somehow.

Try deleting the monitor/HDTV and any drivers install from the device manager... then, reboot, to see if it will update or re-register the device.

This info is from the Extron Electronics EDID Manager release notes pdf... Here is the link to the pdf. It works under Windows 10 if you want to use it to look at the info in the registry.
Here is the download link: http://media.extron.com/download/files/control/EDID_ManagerV1x0.exe

KNOWN ISSUES

EDID translation support for extension blocks is limited to the CEA-861 extension only – EDID Manager adheres to the parameters of EDID v1.3,
outlined in VESA’s E-EDID specification Release A, Revision 1, which requires a single 128 byte base block, and allows for the use of an open ended number of EDID extension blocks.
However, the only extension block translation supported by EDID Manager is the CEA-861 extension, which is required by HDMI sinks.

Multiple EDID occasionally marked active in the drop down list – All EDID from displays booted into a system are permanently stored in Windows Registry.
During boot up, Windows Registry will flag the current EDID as “Active.”
During the Windows session, newly connected displays can be (but are not always) marked, but disconnected displays are never un-marked.
For systems that do not automatically update this registry, right click the “Monitors” sub-tree in Device Manager and execute “Scan for Hardware Changes.”
This update can lead to multiple EDIDs being identified as “Active” when attempting to load EDID from Registry. If needed, this can be rectified by rebooting the system.

EDID extensions are not always stored in Windows Registry – In some systems, EDID extension block information does not get stored properly in Windows Registry.
In this case, the base block will show an extension block flagged, but the second block will be filled with zeros.

Entech, also, has one that does the same... http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm

Also, since the TV is defaulted at 1080p try using "auto width" setting.

Other than this, I don't know.
Maybe, some others that are using a NUC with an HDTV will see your thread and have more ideas.
Or, try one of the forums that deals with video, like avsforum or highdefforum forums.
 
So I updated my bios and I uninstalled and reinstalled installed the graphic driver and deleted all monitors in the DM and restarted and it still is not displaying correctly. :(

Last time I saw vertical banding like that, it was because the memory was factory overclocked too far.

a loose monitor connector to the monitor or GPU can also cause this anomaly.
 
You need to stop looking at the TV settings and fix this with your PC. Use 1080p and apply scaling, probably something along the lines of 75% either on your dedicated or IGPU.

Compare this with a native 1366x768 and see which works best for you.
 
My native display is 1366x768 on my old sony 40'' lcd. When it comes to games i just up scale simple.
 
It doesn't look the best but if you are on an intel graphics chip select 1920x1080 and put it at 50 hz and customize the aspect ratio it looks better than 1650x1050 on my TV
(its a GPX TD2420AR)
