    Windows start screen (screen before windows login screen)


    I run a triple monitor setup and the startup screen is stretched to the max (see image)

    Is there any way to fix this so the image is visible or will it be forever stretched?
    any help would be greatly appreciated

    Cheers

    Not sure I understand. What exactly do you want? Do you want the complete image on each screen?

    yes if i can!!! but I am trying to get the complete image on the 3 screens ( screens are spanned to make 1 screen)
    See how the image is stretched over the 3 screens and part of the image is off the screen i am trying to get the image to span the 3 screens (preferably) without being stretched so it looks like a normal image. IE unstretch the image and get it to span the 3 screens. if it is possible

    I can't tell, by your screenshot, if anything is chopped off or not.

    You must have Nvidia Surround, or similar, enabled to span the Lock Screen.

    You'll need an image in the proper resolution

    On dual monitors, (3840X1080), mine works okay...

    startup image


    What im trying to change is the image Windows 10 displays at start up (BEFORE you get to the sign in screen) that's the image that is stretched because it isn't 5760 x 1080 (triple monitors) yes im running NVIDIA surround all the backgrounds ive downloaded have been for that resolution 5760 x 1080 but I cant seem to find where the start up screen (the one you see BEFORE you get to the sign in screen) is located or where to change it (if it is at all possible to change). OK boot your PC you run through BIOS then you should get a screen with just time and date on it (that's the screen im trying to change) IF you press enter on this screen you end up at the login screen (password etc....)

    OK it is NOT the lock screen it is the FIRST screen you see at boot up (no password or name on screen see original image) ive changed the lock screen so and i know its not that one.
    Unless my system boots differently from others i don't know how else to describe it.
    I start my PC it boots past bios then gets to the first windows screen (no password or name on screen see original image) NOTE: on this screen you would press enter to bring up the password and name screen so once again THE VERY first windows screen (prior to password)

    Unfortunately you're plagued with the Default Lock Screen.
    I'm not sure if @Brink has a tutorial for changing that, maybe he will respond.
