External monitor screen too wide

[journey64]

Hello,
The screen on my laptop is normal but the external screen shows black space at top and bottom and the picture is stretched out from side to side.

Set the screen resolution to the recommended size for your external monitor. We don't know what type and size monitor you have.

Hi Journey64, Have a look at this informaton on using two monitors and see if it helps - http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Move-windows-between-multiple-monitors

Did you get it figured out?

Cheers,
