I am not sure if this is the right section to post this in

I have an Acer Aspire notebook, and a Sharp LCD TV which I am trying to use as a second monitor.

It works just fine with VGA, however, when I hook it up to my laptop via HDMI, something's not right.

It uses it's native resolution of 1920x1080, however, this is what it looks like:

I've looked through all settings on the TV, and none of them fix or help the problem.

I have an Intel video driver, and none of those settings help either. I've tried all other resolutions, none of them work how I need them to. 1920x1080 is the recommended resolution.

Does anyone have any ideas on how I can fix this?

I am running Windows 7 64-bit by the way.

I already tried that.

It tells me to get the driver from the computer manufacturer, and there are no graphics drivers for my laptop on the Acer website.
