Setting right resolution and refresh rate

[gold_finger]

Thanks for posting that it turned out to be a monitor problem.  That stinks, but at least you know you weren't doing something wrong.

I'm pretty sure you probably already checked this, but just in case -- did you try the physical settings buttons on the monitor to see if the display area is positioned correctly and not off to one side or the other?  (See first drawing on left of image below to see what I mean.)
