Hello,

I am a noob and have no idea how to explain this properly, but AMD has been bugging me to update my driver from 12.1 to 12.10 for awhile now.. I finally did it and the display no longer fills my monitor. It is coming in over an inch from each side and half of that or so from the top/bottom. The only way I could get it to max the monitor out was to lower the resolution. I am using an AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series, at recommended settings 1920X1080.

Sorry if this isn't a proper forum...
Thanks

Open Catalyst Control Center --> open the "My Digital Flat-Panels" drop-down menu on the left side of the screen --> Go into "Scaling Options" and adjust the overscan to 0%. See if that works.

That happens every time I update my drivers on my HTPC. You just have to scale up the screen size. It's an option within the Catalyst Control Center. Poke around and you should be able to find it.

Edit: Elfear has the details above. See if that works.
