I have an ACER ASPIRE 5535 laptop computer running Windows 7 home premium. I just recently formatted my "C:" drive and did a clean install of Windows 7. Everything went fine and all of the Updates downloaded and installed without a problem. The monitor on my computer is 15.5 inch LCD HD monitor. I also have it hooked up via the VGA cord to my 32 inch LCD TV. The TV is just great but my monitor seems to be giving me a problem. It is only set up as a square screen so I have two black bands on either side ( not top and bottom ) of my monitor. I must have done something wrong. The monitor used to be full screen but it is not now. How can I get my full screen back?

 

Thanks for any assistance you can give me. I am a retired Canadian currently living in Chiang Mai Thailand and other than hot it is great.

Have you check the monitor resolution to make sure it is set correctly?

 

Have you tried to have the monitor adjust the the screen size?

 

On most LCD displays there is a button that you can press that will self adjust the height and width to fit full screen.
