why won’t win 7 pro fill LCD monitor screen

by jaypea5000 . Updated 15 years, 8 months ago

after using my westinghouse LCM-24w1 LCD flat-panel widescreen for at least a year on windows 7 pro 32-bit without difficulty at it’s native 1920×1200 resolution, I now have an inch wide black stripe down the right side of the screen. the windows desktop ends at the start of the black bar. I’ve tried a PCI Express ATI video card, the mobo-integrated ATI video chip and an nvidia PCI Express video card — all with updated drivers. they all exhibit the same problem — windows thinks the display is an analog CRT.

how do I fix this so that the native 1920×1200 fills the entire screen like it used to? does windows misidentification of the monitor have anything to do with it?
