[QUOTE="subgenious, post: 819170, member: 91026"] Well, I had some limited success yesterday and thought I'd share my current progress for anyone else dealing with this issue. I was able to get the resolution reset to something visible by starting the computer in safe mode (holding left shift on startup evidently does that special trick...). After that was corrected, my adventure with switchresx began! By leaving overscan enabled, and messing around with the resolutions (yes, much trial and error here) I have been able to shrink the screen down to a size where I can now see everything. There are some great tutorials online to show how to use this software with an LCD TV, and in all honesty it isn't that hard... just time consuming. I'm having some difficulty getting the picture centered on the screen and I have managed to create a weird blue bar on the bottom and right sides of the picture, but I'm getting closer. Hopefully I can finish this up before I have to leave the state for the week on business... So far I would definitely recommend downloading this package and playing around. It is fairly intuitive and the picture looks significantly better with the HDMI input. No, I'm not a resolution snob, but there is definitely a visible difference to be seen. [/QUOTE]
