Question

Screen slightly wider than normal

by Feb 16, 2015 3:57AM PST

I have an ASUS Laptop hooked up to a Samsung LED Screen. Closed of the laptop last night and turned on this morning and my screen is slightly wider. When I open my Yahoo page the arrows to change the page forward or back
are slightly oval I believe they should look round. Not a big problem but can be annoying.
Thanks

Sounds right.

Try rebooting as the aspect ratio or screen size can do this if the screen is mirrored. This is expected behavior.

Some samsungs have image controls such as Just Fit to others. Time for you to go over those areas on the monitor.
