Sony KDL46W4100 LCD TV & Nvidia GTX 285 connected

[Grooveriding]

Hi all,

I just picked up this TV. I connected it via an HDMI to DVI cable to my GTX 285 on my computer. It shows the TV under the nvidia control panel as being 1920x1080 res, but on the TV it's as if the edge of the screen on all four sides is not showing up.

My monitor is a 24" 1920x1200 res and is the main display #1, the TV is #2.

This is some sort of overscan/underscan issue correct ?

Has anyone successfully connected a KDL46W4100 to their nvidia video card and it properly displays the full image of your desktop/game etc at 1920x1080. Am I just doing something wrong, or some setting is incorrect here ?

Anyone with some experience with this ?

Thanks all!

I have a 46" Sony LCD TV as well.
There should be a setting in the TV settings menu to go "Full Pixels" instead of "Normal," "-1," or "-2."
