    I'm not sure if it's an overscan/underscan problem, but if it is..........

    If you have CCC installed, in the search field type underscan.
    Select Scaling Options.
    Move the slider from underscan to overscan and Apply the setting.

    What resolution are you running for the OS vs your games?

    Try running OS on 1024*768 - Set resolution then restart laptop. Let it load with that lower resolution then attempt your game again.

    Have you updated your graphics drivers???

    Edit: Never mind I see you did. See step #9 here - Tips on Troubleshooting Game Issues
