Display
NVIDIA GeForce GT 220 [Display adapter]
Philips PHL 243V5 [Monitor] (23.4"vis, s/n ZV01538001241, September 2015)
I have been away for several months and when I fired up this PC I saw that the resolution had changed and not all the screen was covered, which it was before I left.
The PC had been used very occasionally while I was away and the user has no knowledge of what went on re updates etc.
The default resolution for the Philips PHL 243V5 monitor is 1920 x 1200 but in Display Options, the max shown, and current selection is 1920 x 1080 and that has (recommended) beside it.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled the NVidia driver using the option to remove installed drivers but the result is the same.
I would appreciate any advice on how to fix this issue.
Thanks
Daniel
