gusangora Posted February 18, 2007 Share Posted February 18, 2007 I am using Vista Home Premium and a nvidia 7950GT graphics card with the latest beta driver (100.64) connected to a HDTV (Sony SXRD KS70R200) via DVI -> HDMI cable. I can not see any settings to adjust the desktop size on the TV and due to overscan, I can not see the taskbar, nor any edge. Is it possible with Vista and nvidia? If so, how?

ramjetr Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I'm unsure of vista as I'm trying my best not to upgrade to it.... but M$ reasons aside... In XP there is an option under the display device advanced properties for overscan correction. Unsure how to get to it in Vista Rammy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rustle Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I think this is a limitation with the nVidia drivers atm.... Resolved IssuesSee “Changes in Version 100.65” on page 7 for a list of resolved issues. Limitations in This Release The following are features that are not currently supported or have limited support in this driver release: • Refresh Rate Precision The current driver programs the hardware timing for a 59.94 Hz refresh rate to be the same as the timing used for a 60 Hz refresh rate. • Pan & Scan This driver does not support the Pan & Scan feature. (Pan & Scan is the process of panning across the desktop in order to display a desktop on a monitor with lower resolution). • Full‐featured HDMI Support The following are known problems that will be fixed in a future driver version: • There are some known image quality issues. • Noise and pixel corruption occur under Clone or Dualview modes. • Only stereo audio is supported; 5.1 surround is not supported. • INF Support for Restricted Timings This driver version does not support the use of Restricted Timing settings (R&T strings) in the INF to control mode validation and/or mode setting for custom mode/adapter/monitor combinations. This capability is planned for a later driver release. • Overscan/Underscan Support The ability to display the entire desktop on a TV is not supported—the desktop will be masked instead. http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/100....lease_Notes.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrewWilliams Posted March 10, 2007 Share Posted March 10, 2007 Overscan is a bit tricky to fix but this is what I use on my SXRD (will vary between displays) Works perfectly. http://img174.imageshack.us/img174/1781/18...16at50hzwm4.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
