Help with screen display
Hi
I bought a new computer yesterday (desktop) an firstly during the setup process found out it didn't have VGA port so I couldn't connect my screen to it, I have today been out and bought an HDMI to HDMI cable and connected our HDTV to it. After setting up everything seemed to be going fine but when the desktop was showing both the left hand edge and the bottom edge of the screen were off the monitor. I have managed to slightly adjust the screen via the TV menu so that I can see the buttons but when I open anything I am now missing the top bar as the window opens up at the top with the top 1/2 inch missing.
I am curious as to how does it know what size screen you have it looks about in inch too small but if I buy a new bigger TV will the same thing happen, why does it not just fit to the screen.
Thanks for your help
