Re: Second Monitor Problem

When a song is played the lyrics are not centred on the screen and the first letter of some lines of lyrics is off the left side of the screen. I don't understand how it's happened or how to fix it.

The only thing I can think of, is that she had two Hoster windows open ( as we often do with no problems) and tried to set them to show side by side ( right click > Taskbar > show windows side by side ). This didn't fit properly, so she undid this.

Tonight I have tried everything I can think of to fix it from resetting everything to do with dual displays and screen resolutions in "Display settings". I also checked the TV's settings to make sure nothind had been accidentally changed.

I'm using a laptop with Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit, i3 processor M330 2.13Ghz (x2). 3Gb RAM.

i have a 54" Samsung LCD/HD TV and have no problem using the dual display, you might wanna check the tv resolution, see if its on wide screen mode,when you're connecting your laptop/pc on plasma tv,whether you're using the vga,s-video or hdmi input make sure you're using the pc source, instead of tv source..on your plasma tv.
