GTX 460 Resolution problem

[Lordochu]

Hi all,

I have a 40" HDTV that has a 1920 x 1080p native resolution, and windows 7 recommends this resolution too. But when I choose this resolution, it cuts off portion of the screen. I downloaded the latest drivers, but I am not sure how to fix this problem. If I plug my cousins computer with an ati HD5770 into my tv, it displays 1920 x 1080 just fine. This has me puzzled and I was hoping someone might know the problem. Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Are you connecting through the HDMI port? Try using the Auto adjust setting in the TV's menu.

I am using hdmi. Also, the tv uses that auto adjust at all times. It can change from 1080p, 720p, and something lower.

Try changing it in the Nvidia control panel? go to "adjust desktop size and position" and click "Change to native resolution".

If it still doesn't work, try a reinstall of drivers.

Not sure how to get to the Nvidia control panel. Is that software I need to install first? Thanks for the help btw.

you should be able to access it by right clicking, should be under "paste". Did you install drivers, or is from windows?

Found it. Unfortunately, it didn't work. I will try to redownload the drivers. Thanks.

Hi Thanks

I should have mentioned that i also use a 20" samsung monitor, and wanted the display's to show the taskbar on both displays.

I figured it out - the only way to show it on both displays at the right size is to use either /or display...one or the other

- not both at the same time, unless u extend the display of course.

I did in the end have to use the nVidia settings to re-size the 40" TV, but sadly can only use one monitor at a time:

---the easiest way is to show desktop on TV only,

---then when the TV is on it automatically displays correctly on the monitor.

---Vice versa when monitor is off it displays correctly on the TV.

---and when both are on the monitor will be black. =))
