Hi,

Look on the graphics control center and you should see an option to overscan,push this up untill it fills the screen. It`s on the catalyst control center for amd gpu and nvidia has somthing similar.

Hi I am on windows 8 and not very streetwise on computers, where do I find the graphics control centre

Hi,

I`ve never used win 8 but Ill try to explain,if you have a task bar where your antivirus shows up in the bottom right hand corner check there,if not try right click on the desktop and you should see a option pop up and you are looking for nividia or catalyst control. If your laptop has intel graphics it might be under intel.

I use GOM Video players and under options it allows me to select aspect ratio which for flat screen 1080P 16:9. It also allows be to stretch the picture with degrading the picture.
