Got a new monitor and am having a strange problem
So my new monitor I got hates me. Reasons I came to this conclusion are: My resolution(s) don’t fit my screen, I have to move the mouse to the top of the screen to go up and see the top of windows, I have to move the mouse down to see my taskbar and stuff down at the bottom, same for right and left sides of the screen. Does anyone have any idea what might fix this or maybe even cause it?
Here’s how I went about installing the monitor, just in case the questions come up and someone might know: I shutdown my computer, unplugged monitor one and moved it to monitor two slot on the video card. Monitor is now on my floor with the new monitor plugged into the monitor one slot. I then turned out power and installed the stuff on the CD that came with said new monitor, drivers and some application that came with it. I hit update drivers and everything is up to date. Rather confusing as either I fail at Google or it just doesn’t want to show me what I want to know.
That normally happens when you have 2 monitors cloned. It is using a resolution from the old monitor that isn’t supported by the new one. Just unplug the old monitor or set the new one to be the primary.
