Desktop wider than screen, mouse leaves tracers

[marklantis]

I upgraded my PRECISION 470 from a nVidia Quadro FX1400 to a nVidia GeForce 8400GS.
I bought the card on AMAZON and installed the drivers that came with it.
Now, my desktop is bigger than my screen and the mouse leaves tracer mouses.
The adapter is set to my screen's NATIVE resolution of 1920x1080 and connects with HDMI.
Keyboard and mouse response seems slow.
OS is Windows 7 w/ sp1

I just installed a new 24" monitor and at 1080 res the desktop was smaller than screen and blury, the opposite of what your experiencing. I tried updating drivers etc.. but couldnt figure it out at first?
It turned out to be a 'scaling options' setting in the control centre for my radeon gpu!!
Dont know if this helps?

Megabomination,
Thanx for the tip!
I had to turn OFF overscan in my TV settings.
NOT in my video card settings.
Now, everything is back to normal.

Cool! Yeh my setting that I changed was in the software for my graphics card but it also was in HDTV settings!
