Overscanning Acer KG281K

RickA

Hi I bought an Acer monitor before the pandemic it was an Acer KG281K and it worked perfectly fine but I gave the monitor to a friend and just got it back and have recently swapped laptops compared to what I used to use with the monitor and I noticed something was wrong after plugging it in I tried to put a window to full screen a realized I couldn't see half the things so I did research and found out it was over scanning but for the life of me I cant figure out how to fix it. I have spent the last two days trying to fix it and I've even ended up googling it up but they only tell me how to fix TVs in picture settings which I have tried to find on this monitor but I couldn't find it. And before you ask I have tried different scaling options in the display settings. Does anyone know how to fix this or is my screen stuck like this forever?

Any and All help would be apreciated

Thanks in Advance

Try this. Power on the monitor first. Wait a minute or two. Then power on the PC.

Try System; Wide modes in the OSD.
