    I have the latest beta nvidia drivers installed for my Dell XPS 17 laptop but in the Nvidia control panel there is no "adjust desktop size and position" tab for display scaling. What is going on here? Are my drivers bad or something? I am trying to play a game with fixed aspect ratio (black bars on the sides) and I want to know how I can do this.

    Hi Gary,

    My name is Rathish and I am working with Dell Social Media Team. I got to know from your post that your computer`s video card drivers have some issues.
    The first step which we will try is to uninstall the drivers which you have installed as the driver which is installed is a beta version.
    Beta version is also a test driver which might give issue.
    I request you to kindly open the link given below

    Drivers and Downloads | Dell [United States]

    Enter the service tag number of the computer and choose the Operating system which you are using.
    Please look for the NVDI driver available for the computer and install it on the computer .
    I am sure that should resolve the issue

    I request you to please revert us if any further issues.



    Thanks & Regards
