Dell ST2410 with HDMI won't display full screen

I had my new monitor hooked up via DVI and switched it to HDMI today. Now my display doesn't fill the ST2410 screen. So I have lost almost 3" of diagonal display. I have no idea why. All my settings seem to be correct.

 

Please help.

* Open the ATI Catalyst Control Center, under DTV (HDMI) 3 Scaling Options or at the bottom left hand corner there is a smaller monitor where you open the configure option
* Select 0% Overscan and click Apply

* Open the Nvidia Control Panel- Adjust desktop size and position, try all 4 choices until you find the one that fills the screen, click Apply

Chirs,

Thank you very much. I wasn't aware that the desktop tab had context menus on both the monitors in the middle of that page and the monitors at teh bottom of the page. I appreciate your help and the screen looks a lot better now. Thank you for your expertise.

Hi Chris,
I came accross this when I googled it. I did everything you said and it works great, Its  full screen. But when i restart/turn on my computer, it goes back to what it was before and I loose about 3-4 inches on my ST2410 and then I got to do it again. Any idea on how to make it stay full screen always?

Thanks Chris,

The video card driver would have to remember the setting. I don't know why it doesn't keep it on restart.
