Question by Kakisback: Connectind PC (DVI) to FULL HD LCD 40″ SONY (HDMI)?
TV:
SONY KDL-40V4000
40″
FULL HD 1080p
PC:
GPU – GeForce XFX 9800 GTX+ Black Edition
Output – DVI
Adapting both of these with a DVI-HDMI cable i get a default resolution of a normal LCD/CRT monitor 1280×1024
and when i set it to full HD 1920×1080 progressive (60 Hz) i get an image which is too big for my monitor (taskbar and all edges are out of the picture). When i set it to 720p the zoom effect only gets worse.
If you know something about this problem please share your knowledge.
How do i get it to fit to the screen??
ps. please don’t be a smart a** and tell me “your TV is set on ZOOM mode” believe me i’ve double checked these things.
TY for helping

I also have a Sony Bravia and it’s connected to my computer using a DVI-to-HDMI cable: http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f347/armchairaviator/computer/IMG_0880c.jpg
There is a setting called Display Area in one of the setup menus on my Bravia, which controls Overscan/Underscan. It must be set to “full pixel” for the computer image to be displayed edge-to-edge with no overscan (edges cut off) or underscan (black border on all 4 sides).
See if that setting is available on your Sony, and good luck.
