Just went from 1440p to 1080p... 1 inch border now, help

Phusius · Apr 27, 2012

Ok, so I sold my 1440p monitor because I can no longer afford it, I got a 1080 23inch monitor now. However, there is a one inch black border now, and I can't for the life of me figure how to make it all full screen again. Should I reinstall my video card drivers?

Open AMd vision control center > my digital flat panels > scaling options. If you don't have AMD I don't know what's wrong.

Had the same problem on my 55" TV, this should do the trick unless you're from the green camp.

Did you change the resolution option in Windows?

Phusius · Apr 27, 2012

Im confused how you couldnt afford a purchased monitor.

Rent-a-center?

The monitor in his sig (Catleap Q270) can be bought for under $350 on eBay, brand new, shipped from Korea. A monitor with similar specs (IPS panel, 1440p res) in the US would probably run you double that, if not more. He probably sold it and downsized to a 23" 1080p TN/TFT panel monitor and pocketed the difference.

@3870x2, ugh i HATE rent-a-center and Aarons... both are total rip-offs and the intrest rates are nuts

Phusius · Apr 28, 2012

it's called impulse buy + credit card + not enough money in the bank + haven't had work in over 8 months = no income

You using HDMI? I've only had this same scaling issue with HDMI cables, nonissue with DVI or even miniDP adapter with DVI cable

Mussels · Apr 28, 2012

pity AMD still havent fixed this, this 'feature' has been around for far too long.

H82LUZ73 · Apr 28, 2012

Do you have it set for 60hz under windows and AMD control center? I have not had to use the scaling option since 11.4 drivers.

MilkyWay · Apr 28, 2012

I dont know about monitors but my tv is hooked up to my computer via HDMI and i sometimes have to change the underscan - overscan settings in scaling options in the ATI control panel.
AH sorry didn't know you had fixed the problem.
