[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1577107, member: 24160"] Don't have DVI or VGA input on the monitor? Would guess Sony has the monitor set up for it's HDMI input to be expecting an external DVD/Blu-Ray player, etc. and it is using overscan. Without a way to turn off overscan in the monitor settings, you're going to need to set up a custom resolution. I used SwitchResX for awhile with my '06 DVI out MBP. Do not recall the specific resolution I used to take care of the issue on a 1080p TV. edit: I actually have the resolution I used in the link above. [/QUOTE]
