TV Screen cut off
« on: January 21, 2006, 07:50:25 pm »
Iv managed after much work to get my pc rigged up to my 28" tv but for some reason there is a 6/7" gap at the bottom of the tv and its rather annoying any reason why this may be and what can be done to remedy this?

Im connecting via an s-vhs lead
if you need more info to help me fix this problem just let me know what you need. many thanks in advance - Marky

I have the same problem. I have a 27" Insignia. I have a Radeon graphics card and I had some problems setting it up so I could actually SEE the screen, it still is a mess while booting, until it comes to the user page. I have the Catalyst graphics program that the graphics card works on but I do not know what to change to get it to work. Maybe we will find out together! I am going to call the help line on Monday if I can't get it fixed before then. I will keep you posted.

im not sure whether it my grapics card or not i changed the settings to ntsc mode and it gave me an extra bit of screen but took away the sharpe appearance i had before. Its an improvement but far from perfect.

Did you ever get this fixed Mark? I never got mine fixed. I called ATI and they walked me through a few things but nothing worked. Kinda bummed but maybe I will find a fix for it someday.

No the problems not fixed mate its still cut off the screen but i guess im gonna have to live with it shame iv got this 28" tv and not using the whole screen kinda defeats the object of having a big screen
