    When I hook up my M1330 via HDMI to my Sharp Aquos, after some fiddling it recognizes and updates to 1920x1080 but on my TV there's a black border around the desktop.

    I remember before when I hooked it up I was able to display edge to edge. I think it might have to do with the scaling options in the nVidia Control Panel, but when I go there it's greyed out and I can't set it to No Scaling.

    I am currently using the latest drivers from LaptopVideo2Go and have even tried using the drivers recommended to me by Windows Update. Both have the same issue.

    Anyone know how I can get it back to edge-to-edge?

    Strange, I tried using the LaptopVideo2Go drivers and was having the same problem. But by using the latest Vista drivers that come with windows update, I managed to get it to work.
