Yellow!
I got a GEFORCE 8800 GT graphics card, View Sonic LED HDMI 1080p screen & windows 7.
My screen resolution to be 1920 x 1080 in the VGA setting area. I place it at that and the screen is to big. ( things sticking out on sides and cant see everything) Why? I downloaded the latest drivers ( or I think I did) from the Nvidia website? Got any idea's on whats going on with my computer graphics?

The latest drivers are faulty ive had the same issue with my 9500gt and 9500gs and the GT430
The drivers didnt work so i restored to an older version and it went perfectly
Nvidia are now releasing the drivers for the newer cards and they may not be testing them on the older cards so its causing issues, my GTX560ti is running the latest drivers without a problem but its a newer card so it shouldnt

"( things sticking out on sides and cant see everything) Why? "

Because you need to adjust your monitor screen size !
its that simple, why did no one else say it?
I have used a Lot of computers and graphic card and monitors.
