Win 7 & Samsung monitor.

The on screen display leaves a 5 cm gap on the right of the screen.
I have tried Control panel / Resolution / Display settings.
Also, The monitor on screen display position settings.

When I try and drag the display it stops at the 5 cm gap so doesnt fill
the screen.

This has only started in the last couple of days.
Any ideas or is the monitor starting to fail?

factory reset using the monitor's inbuilt menu?

I remember trying to use a fairly early TV with an HDMI input as a
monitor. A so called HD ready set. No dedicated Windows driver available,
and would only work on one resolution on the one Windows chose. But it was
the overscan which made it unusable.

I've got a smart 24" Samsung TV in the workshop above the 'electronics'
bench. Fed via an HDMI splitter from the computer monitor feed - to view
things like circuit diagrams while working on things. Works a treat.

Is the displayed image being compressed - so you can see everything but
it is not filling the full display area, or, is it cropping the image so
you are losing the right hand edge of the image?

Looks like it is starting to fail if you have cycled the power.

Can't be that given that the monitor on screen
display position settings dont fix it.

i.e its in the monitor.

I can see everything so not cropping.
A factory reset on the monitor sorted it.
