    Monitor Not Full Screen


    Hey guys. I have a slight problem. I have a Dell XPS7100 that I got yesterday. I tried to start it up and for some reason it is not full screen. I tried to adjust it through the controls on the monitor, that didnt work. Then i tried to adjust it through my computer i.e. through system preferences. Could it be the drivers or something? My graphics card it 1GB ATI® Radeon™ HD 5870 graphics card with Vision Black label and my monitor is DELL™ ST2410 24-inch Full HD Widescreen Monitor.


    Thanks so much!

    Ps, im connected with an HDMI cable...

    Sounds like the underscan/overscan setting in CCC

    Catalyst Control Centre - Graphics - Desktop & Displays - Right Click small HDTV at the bottom - Configure - Scalling - Underscan/Overscan - set to 0%

    Need some help/advice with my HD 5770

    That shows where you go in CCC to fix the problem.

    Secondly, the 10.9 Cat's bork the setting of Overscan properly (for some of us HDMI users).

    GPU-78: ATI Catalyst

    ATI Catalyst 10.9a Hotfix Feature:

    * ATI Radeon™ HD 4870 X2 and ATI Radeon HD 4850 X2 series of products use both Graphics Processing Units (GPU) for high performance
    * Intermittent hangs with Pop Cap games in a system with an ATI Radeon series graphics card installed
    * High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) overscan / underscan settings are restored upon system reboot

    Instructions:
    Download and install the ATI Catalyst hotfix from the following location:

    * ATI Catalyst 10.9a Hotfix for Windows® 7 / Windows Vista®
    Click that ATI/AMD link to get the hotfix drivers.
