Looking for:
Windows monitor too zoomed in
I have encountered an issue with my second screen being zoomed in slightly. It happened out of the blue, both monitors went dark and when they came back my second monitor had a different background and was zoomed in slightly. Half of the task bar at the bottom screen is cut off, but this effect persist along the perimeter of the screen. Immediately after the incident, when the wallpaper changed, it was not active on my second monitor.
It then immediately reverted to the broken state of being zoomed slightly. Checking the driver revealed it had been reinstalled at that point. At this point I am not sure what else to try and google has not been able to assist. This setup has functioned for me for 3 years now and this has not happened before.

Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. My second screen, the Sony tv, had no such settings for dpi or ppi. I poked around in the display settings on windows 10, and changed every setting that appeared in the menu, including the "Change the size of text, apps, and other items" drop down menu. Which had me use registry editor to set a custom scale factor for my dpi. However, when trying to use my settings app for the second part of the guide, there was no slider.
After kicking around I discovered that's because it was removed in an update. Choose where you want to search below Search Search the Community.

I have the same question 0. Report abuse. Details required :. Cancel Submit. Jordan Langford Independent Advisor. Hi there, Have you tried changing the DPI settings on the second monitor? You should be able to find this in the same location where you change your resolution My second monitor does this too but I resolve this by changing the aspect ratio on the monitor itself to a setting called just scan maybe have a flick through the different ratios.

In reply to Jordan Langford's post on October 16, Hey thanks for the reply, My second screen, the Sony tv, had no such settings for dpi or ppi. Since it did not work I have reverted the changes I made with registry editor. Thanks for the suggestion, but no luck I am afraid. I tried reinstalling my drivers again and this time it worked. If you switch it to the primary monitor do you face the same issue?
