Read the monitor's manual - it will tell you what buttons to push on the monitor to stretch the screen to fill it up.

You have left out much detail. 1) On a laptop, if you repair the screen and use the wrong screen as a replacement, the right hand side and bottom of the screen can have a black area. The laptop BIOS is passing wrong information about the screen dimensions. 2) If you connect a computer to a TV set, the TV set may emphasize correct aspect ratio, over attempting to fill the screen. In which case, you use the Display control panel or PowerStrip to correct the dimensions of the output. Or use the OSD on the TV, to select some other policy. 3) If you connect a computer to an LCD monitor, the LCD monitor is multisync, and will try to fill the screen in many cases. This causes circles to look like ellipses. That means the aspect ratio is not correct. As in (2), attempt to get the computer to send the correct display mode and dimensions by using the Display control panel. You can use this tool, and the "real time" entry, to get information about the monitor. The same information your computer is reacting to. http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm This shows the output of Moninfo for my 1280x1024 monitor. It shows all the standard options available to me. I just select 1280x1024 from the Display control panel. http://imageshack.us/a/img22/6658/kuwk.gif Paul
