Video Spilling Off Screen And Very Blurry When Using TV As Laptop Monitor

[OrangeFlash81]

Hi,

I've been trying to use a TV as a laptop display, but when I am using it I can't see the edges of the screen. It is also fairly blurry, noticeably so in text. I am using an Intel HD Graphics 4000 card, but I can't find any settings that I could change to rectify the issue.

How can I make it show all of the screen and not be so blurry?

Thanks!

Search your graphics HD 4000 and overscan settings. You should be able to solve your issues pretty quickly as soon as you find the overscan settings.

I've just had a look in both the Intel HD Graphics Control Center and the Windows Control Panel and I can't find anything about overscan...

I did a quick search, see if this helps.

"Intel Graphics properties I had to set the refresh rate to 24p, then the custom aspect ratio adjustments appeared. Now you can adjust the pic size to fit. 75 horiz, 75 vert worked for me. On all Samsung TV's "16:9" is overscanned, and "Screen-Fit" is Full pixel."

Thanks, but 24p isn't listed in the list of refresh rates for me...
