You should be able to adjust the monitor settings to fully fill the screen. It's common and typical to tweak the monitor settings for full screen viewing. If the video card were incompatible the image would be unusable and appear scrambled or not appear at all.
-----Original Message----- From: Elecraft [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Marty Sent: Tuesday, September 01, 2015 10:49 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [Elecraft] P3 - SVGA Monitor Compatibility Suggestions I just purchased a new Samsung 23.6” LED HD Monitor for my P3. Unfortunately I get the two black bars on each side of the screen when I set the resolution to 1920 X 1080 (1920 x 1080 alt fills the screen but clips the image on all four sides). I had read somewhere that the black bars indicated that there was a compatibility issue with the monitor frequency and the P3 SVGA. If I change the resolution to 1440 x 900 it fills the screen, but clips the data on the bottom and the text is too big (I adjusted the text size as small as available). Can anyone suggest a compatible monitor or brand of monitors? I like the Samsung, but I would prefer a monitor that can utilize the entire screen. Thanks. 73, Marty - K1MTK ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected] ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
