Axe.ZerG 90 Posts October 18 2011 03:12 GMT #1 Hi, I've been using this monitor for quite a while now, its a viewsonic VX2453mh-LED. It doesn't bother me very much at all, but I am forced to put a resolution of 1804x1014 My graphics card is a gtx 560 ti, and I am running a hdmi cable into the monitor. Whenever I put it in 1920x1080, it simply doesn't fit my monitor, I can't see everything on the screen. I have looked around on the nvidia drivers but haven't been able to find a way to make it work. This is not a major problem however I'd be interested to know if I'm not the only one with this issue and is there a solution?

HavokTheorem New Zealand250 Posts October 18 2011 03:23 GMT #2 Just an idea, but have you tried setting your res to 1920x1080 and then auto-configuring your monitor? I'm no expert but if your screen size is in fact 1080, then it seems like there is an incorrect DPI setting somewhere.

Axe.ZerG 90 Posts October 18 2011 03:34 GMT #3 there doesn't seem to be a auto-configure button anywhere. I have tried a lot of the options in nvidia's control center and a lot of them just don't change a thing.

HavokTheorem New Zealand250 Posts October 18 2011 03:43 GMT #4 Unfortunately I can't give much advice since I don't have this monitor, but try going in to the monitor's menu with the buttons on the right side. My screen has a bunch of adjustment options. Until someone else who has had this sort of problem before posts, all I can suggest is to try adjust all the settings in the monitor's menu.

EnSky Philippines1003 Posts October 18 2011 04:26 GMT #5 @OP: I think Havok is referring to an auto-configure button in the monitor's menu. Your monitor's native resolution is 1920x1080 so I would suggest you reset your monitor's settings to default and set the input to auto-detect.

Just for this answer United States1 Post June 12 2013 23:43 GMT #7 Found the answer at least for my monitor/tv. I was having the exact same problem and this was how I fixed it. On the monitor, goto Menu. Search for an option to switch between Video and PC modes. Mine was on Video when I was using the monitor previously with VGA cables. I hope that helps someone out there because I was thinking of you.
