I have a 15" SYS LCD monitor model 154UG, manufacture date January 2002. The
display USED to fully fill the screen. But when I was working in Linux and
Windows, I found every time I went to windows, I had to resync (hitting the
"2" button to auto-align). I fixed that problem from the windows side and
then I ended up rebuilding my system. The new motherboard was such that
every time I used WinTV, the display would jump and blur, so I had to resync
every time that happened. I since replaced the motherboard and video, so
that doesn't happen anymore. Things are such that I don't need to keep
resyncing the monitor to get the display right, finally.

However, I'm wondering if all the previous resyncing I did has thrown my
monitor out of alignment? If you'll look at this link:
http://www.techimage.net/files/Monitor-001sys.jpg and please take note of
the "black space" btween the display area and the edges of the screen. When
I'm sitting at the monitor, there's a larger amount of black space on the
left and bottom than there is on the right and top.

Can anyone tell me if there's a way to readjust this so that the display
again fills in the black space (or fills it in more evening). It didn't used
to be like that when I had got this monitor brand-new. I won't mind if I
even have to take the cover off and adjust something on the inside. I just
would like to know WHAT to adjust, where to find that adjustment and how to
do it.

Any help would be appreciated.
