Windows 10 shows the 2nd monitor has 1920x1080 but actually it is 50% less around 1080x840

The resolution of the 2nd monitor, a Vizio VF551XVT 55-inch 1920x1080 HDTV connected through HDMI cable, shows 1920x1080 (Recommended) on the Windows 10’s Display Screen Resolution setting utility but the true resolution of the 2nd monitor is less than 50%; around 1080x840. All applications on the 2nd monitor displayed their header & boarder frames twice wider on screen, which waste/occupy lots of the 2nd monitor’s display area. Please advise how to correct this critical lower than the set/expected resolution problem of th 2nd monitor.  Thanks. The 1st/primary monitor in this case is a mobile PC Display (1920x1080), Lenovo Z710 Intel i7 4710MQ notebook with NVIDIA 840M GPU. Previously running under the Windows 8.1 OS with the same configuration, the 2nd monitor resolution was also displayed incorrectly but just initially right after the Windows 8.1 reboot, i.e. 2nd monitor shows 1920x1080 resolution but actually the 2nd monitor is about the same as Windows 10, the actual resolution is much/50% fewer than 1920x1080. However, the resolution of the 2nd monitor (HDTV) under Windows 8.1 can be corrected (worked around) by switching the main display from 1st to 2nd monitor, then switching main display back from 2nd to 1st, but such Win 8.1 work around doesn't work for Windows 10 OS . Also, please advise whether Lenovo, MS Windows or NVIDIA is responsible for the displays re-position issue. The re-position issue is, when a TV, PC, shared 2nd monitor is disconnected to watching TV, etc., Windows OS currently moves all the display positions, both active and minimized displays, from 2nd monitor to 1st/main monitor, but ideally would be just moving/re-position the active displays to the main/1st monitor and maintain/leave those minimized display positions intact, so when 2nd monitor reconnects back (done watching TV), user doesn’t need to re-align all the displays back to 2nd monitor again. Thanks for helps. 

If you won't lose anything and if it is not a big hassle, I would re-install.
Mainly because Win 10 TP is, after all, a beta OS. Too many possibilities of bugs and glitches. It is better off to reinstall.
The latest build 9879 has a ISO download link. Use the ISO and burn it to a bootable DVd. Then use the DVD to do a clean reinstall.

  • Pavilion Slimline 400-034 Windows 8 not detecting 2nd Monitor

    Hello, I have a Windows HP computer, and I recently bought a 2nd monitor for my birthday, link click here. I have the same monitor for my first, and that works perfectly fine, when I bought the 2nd monitor, I realized I have a different port, and it's not a DVI-I, it's a DVI-D. So I bought a VGA to DVI-D connector, so I plugged my VGA into the connector and then plug the DVI-D into the tower. I turned on my computer, and the 2nd monitor wasn't detected, the DVI-D connected one, but the first one was. The monitor was set into mode auto, so it detected any working inputs, DVI, VGA, HDMI, and another. The 2nd monitor works thought while into the DVI-I port, but neither work in the DVI-D port. Any help (: ??

    Here are the specs for you HP Pavilion Slimline 400-034 Desktop Computer and here is the user guide for your Insignia™ - 24" LED HD "NS-24EM51A14" Monitors. Based on the specs of your computer, it has one DVI-D (digital only) output and one DVI-I (digital and analog) output as shown below;
    #3 - DVI-D (digital only)                     #4 - DVI-I (digital and analog)
    According the user guide for your Insignia monitors... VGA, DVI-D, and HMDI inputs are available. Using a passive DVI-to-VGA adapter will work on the DVI-I port because it supplies both digital and analog signals. Using a passive DVI-to-VGA adapter will NOT work on the DVI-D port because it only supplies digital signals. Please remove both DVI-to-VGA adapters and VGA cables and replace them both with DVI-D cables. You can purchase these cables online and at most local retail store such as Fry's, Best Buy, Walmart, Target, Radio Shack, Staples, Newegg, Office Depot, etc. Once you have purchased two DVI-D cables, please connect your hardware as follows;
    Computer ---> DVI-D cable ---> Monitor #1
    Computer ---> DVI-D cable ---> Monitor #2
    If you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

  • IPhoto window suddenly moves to 2nd monitor

    This only happens when iPhoto is open on my primary monitor which is the built in screen on my 27" iMac.  When I click on a photo the application will often partially minimize and then jump to the external monitor.
    Seperate issue - after exiting full screen the application keeps running but is not on either monitor.  I looked and it is also not running on a different virtual desktop (can't recall what apple calls this).  The only way to get it back is to close iPhoto and reopen.
    iPhoto does not act up with the 2nd monitor disconnected.  Other applications do not behave this way.
    Thanks!  Taylor

    hmmm...
    i can move the mouse freely between the 2 monitors, going above the menubar to the ext. monitor.
    just sometimes, a window won't move up (safari happens mostly; stuck at menubar...)
    any other thoughts, anyone?

  • How do I get pop-up windows to show the navigation buttons (not just the address box)?

    When I click on a link that opens a new firefox window, the new window shows a navigation toolbar that does not include the back, forward, stop, and home buttons (it only shows the internet address box). However, the original firefox window that I navigated away from shows all of the navigation buttons AND the address bar. How do I get these new firefox windows to show the navigation buttons in addition to the address box that automatically appears?

  • Can the 2nd monitor be an extended desktop?

    i know its a silly and simple question but im new to hooking up a second monitor. So if i get the right connector from the apple store and hook up a second monitor can it be an extended desktop or will it only be a mirrored image?

    Can the 2nd monitor be an extended desktop?
    Yes.

  • Using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor

    I'm using 2 monitors. I can't get my Layers Pallet to move to the 2nd monitor screen. It is simply locked to the right side of my 1st monitor. A solution would be great. Sorry if it's a noob question.
    Thanks for your time.

    No problem. We've all had newbie questions at one time or another.
    However, I am going to have to put on my clairvoyant hat and guess you are running Photoshop 10.0.1 (CS3). :/
    In CS3, do NOT attempt to move the palette well, i.e. the dark gray zone above the palettes. That you cannot move.
    Instead, grab each palette individually by the light gray bar just at the top of each palette.

  • SAPScript:  why the window only show the LAST line

    Dears,
    In my form, one of the window only show the LAST line of the it.
    I have set the window enough space,  also when  debuging the program , open_form, write_form,
    all of those sy-subrc = 0.
    both static texts and dynamic texts are set  in the window,   but only the last line shown.
    Anyone could help me?
    Thanks a lot.
    Sincerely,

    Hi,
    There are several possibilities to resolve your problem.
    You can work with 2 main windows on in1 page.
    With NEW-WINDOW you switch to the next main-window
    How to use it.
    make an item in main window with that /: NEW-WINDOW command
    if you are ready with first loop call a WRITE_FORM with that NEW-WINDOW statement.
    to cojntinue in the other main.
    Other possibility is. (in case there are not ot many lines)
    Use for every line other variable names.
    Fill these in the loop. And after loop WRITE FORM
    eg. (if maximum is 3 lines)
    &VAR1_1& &VAR1_2& &VAR1_3& &VAR1_4&
    &VAR2_1& &VAR2_2& &VAR2_3& &VAR2_4&
    &VAR3_1& &VAR3_2& &VAR3_3& &VAR3_4&
    Hope this helps.
    Gr., Frank

  • For iOS the ipad version shows the folio that has been published, but the iPhone app is not.

    I am responsible for handling the apps and not at all involved with or know how the folio creation process works.
    When I build the app for iOS the iPad version shows the folio that has been published, but the iPhone app is not showing the folio.
    Is this something related to the build process or how the folio was created?
    The folio also shows up in the Android app (at least the phone I have tested with).
    Thanks,

    "Android and iOS viewers have different requirements for displaying folios. Any folio size you create can appear in an Android viewer. The articles are scaled and letterboxed as needed. However, on the iPad, the viewer displays only folios with a 4:3 aspect ratio. The iPhone viewer displays only folios with a 3:2 or 16:9 (1136x640) aspect ratio."

  • On the moment that I connect the Iphone 5 on Windows 8, it is not recognized by Itunes, but actually it appears as a usual USB cable, or as a camera. And then I can't synchronize the Iphone 5 with Itunes. So, what do i do?

    On the moment that I connect the Iphone 5 on Windows 8, it is not recognized by Itunes, but actually it appears as a usual USB cable, or as a camera. And then I can't synchronize the Iphone 5 with Itunes. So, what do i do?

    Hi pedro109,
    If your iPhone is recognized by the computer, but not seen by iTunes, you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service, as described in this article -
    How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567
    Once iTunes recognizes the iPhone you should be able to sync it with iTunes. See this article
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad
