[QUOTE="Pmarak, post: 222782, member: 2332"] FINALLY got this working and thought I'd bring my solution forward in case someone else has a similar issue. Sorry for being long winded but am relieved to get this resolved (it was gonna eat at me until I got it solved). I have been trying to figure out for days what was causing my screen to shift. Tried all I could think of. Finally gave up and decided to fire up my install of Visual Pinball for break. Odd...its not coming up in the correct resolution? OK, I haven't played it since I upgraded from Windows 7 64 to Windows 10 64 but all should still be the same right? I look at the video options within the table editor and its says my max available resolution is 1536x864 ??? WTH.. My desktop is set to 1920x1080. A 1920x1080 image fits the screen correctly. Nvidia Control Panel lists it correctly, I check the sizing tab out, all is correct. WTH ?? I turn to Google and search 1536x864 and lo and behold... it turns out than starting with Windows 8.1 ( I'm running Windows 10 64bit) the following can happen... "Windows 8.1 enables by default a display scaling to 125% to enlarge icons for better readability (useful for tiny laptop screens with crazy high resolutions) which is why Windows thinks it's at its native resolution of 1080. However, GeForce Experience is unaware of this change and displays the resolution at something lower to adapt to the scaling. The simple solution is to go back to the screen resolution display change from right clicking on your desktop and select "Make Text and Other items smaller or larger" and set the scale from 125% to 100%" So to reset this scaling I had to.. 1) right click on the desktop and select display settings, then advanced settings 2) select "advanced sizing of text and other items" 3) select the "set a custom scaling level" link from within the Change Size of Items section 4) select 100% (default was 125%) 5) log out and back in to Windows Once I did this VP saw my resolutions correctly and better yet PA and the mods NoEx and Robert have provided worked correctly ! Thanks again guys for the work you've put into this. It's stellar, and greatly appreciated. [/QUOTE]
