After running nvidia 3d setup there is a black gap in the side of my monitor.

Hi I got just got the asus vg248qe and I have not purchased the nvidia 3d kit yet but I wanted to see how the setup is and everything so I tried it. It said hardware test failed but that was expected because I don't have any of the equipment yet. After closing the setup there is a noticeable black line in the very side of my screen. How do I fix this???? I am unable to take a screen shot of it because it won't let me it almost like it is my screens border.

Thanks.

There should be a setting/button on your monitor which does "Autocalibrate", which will shift it to the correct position. Or try changing your screen resolution.

If both doesn't help, try reinstalling your gpu drivers.

I have already tried changing my screen resolution. I can't find any auto calibrate button on my monitor. I will try re installing the drivers in the morning.

Thanks .

And do keep us posted, after results.

I looked through the manual and I found something that would let me reset the whole monitor to factory config. I clicked it, its called all reset. It reset everything but there is still the black gap. Not sure if this makes a difference but I am using two monitors and both of them have the gap.

what are the gpu ports you are using to connect your 2 monitors with? And did you check driver installation(make sure to install stable instead of beta).

I always install the newest stable drivers through geforce experience. I am using dvi-i to vga converter for my secondary monitor and dvi-d dual link for my primary monitor. My primary is running at 144hz and my secondary at 60hz.

what graphics card are you using?

EVGA GTX 770 Hydro Copper. Is this black gap a common issue? The gap isn't to big but it wasn't there before, thats why it worries me.

have you tried using dvi-cable instead of adapter?
Here is another thing you can check out.
Right click on desktop-> Nvidia control panel-> go to option: 'Adjust Desktop size and position'-> Try different settings. I hope that can fix it.

I have tried using both hdmi and dvi instead of adapter. I went to nvidia control panel but I do not see anywhere that says option.

I found the adjust desktop size and position option. It helped but it did not solve it completely. I am fine with it like this. Thanks for all the help.
