Sam ,
The "program" in question is WinXP/SP2 at startup.
I would think that my desktop size should fill the monitor at startup.
My resolution is set to the monitors native resolution - 1920x1080 @60Hz.
As a matter of fact, no matter what resolution I choose the rightmost
inch of the monitor is black and does not show the desktop.

On my new tv the size of the picture on the screen varies with the
program being broadcast.
Some fill the screen and some are short on the sides.

Derrick,
I usually blame myself, then software, then hardware - in that order.
But I'm beginning to suspect/hope that you're right.
Yes, as a matter of fact, Auto Adjust does leave the rightmost inch blank.
I'll keep playing with the monitor and see what happens.
Thanks,

What you are describing is potentially a fault in the display panel
itself, where the pixels from the right edge of the panel are dead.
This can be caused by a failure in the chip driving the vertical rows
of those pixels.
I suspect that if you use "Auto Adjust" you loose the right most inch of
the display.
