I have a Foxconn NT510 Nettop box which has an Intel GMA 3150 chipset.

Detailed specifications are at:

This device is connected to a Plasma TV via HDMI with a resolution of 1024x768

Everything is working as expected.......except the video o/p does not cover the full width of the HDTV. In order to do so, I believe I need to modify the underscan/overscan settings of the video card, however the video application does not have such an option.

I do have the latest VGA drivers deployed from the Foxconn site (Version: 15.12.75.50.1.1972 for Windows 7)

Anyone know on how to access these settings ?
Any other drivers that can be used ?
Are there any drivers with which I could also get audio over HDMI ? (currently it is video only)

Thanks

I'm not familiar as to if it does support this or where it is in the interface Intel interface.

However, since you are starting with a non widescreen resolution, and I assume you either can't, or don't want to set the nettop to a widescreen resolution that your tv would support, you might find it just as easy to use your tv's "full" mode (or whatever your tv calls it).

Your nettop is capable of meeting or exceeding 1920x1080 from the vga port, or you can use the HDMI to get a 1280x720 resolution (whether the intel driver supports these exact modes I don't know but it should). Both of these would give you a far clearer picture than any other option. Though it might be laggy since the GPU is straining a these levels.

EDIT:
In the user manual it allows you to set the HDMI resolution in the bios. Seems kinda unusual, but perhaps you are seemingly stuck at 1024x768 because of the bios setting?
