Assuming you have a flat screen 16x9 TV, make sure it is set to screen fit so that there is minimal overscan. The button should be called pic size or aspect ratio. Also set your laptop to the same resolution as your TV or as close as possible to a supported resolution.

    thanks for the help Carlos

    I didn't ask if you were using a pc input on the TV. I just assumed it was an HDMI output on your laptop. I hope this assumption was correct.

SOURCE: Picture is too big for screen

Go into the setup menu of the TV, and you'll find a category called DISPLAY or ZOOM. That's where you can change the aspect ratio so that it fits on the screen. You'll probably get a gray band on the top and bottom of the screen due to the re-sizing.

You need to set your PC video resolution to the native resolution of the monitor.

This tv is to big to fit through the door so how do i remove it from the base?

you can unscrew the large back plastic section to make the tv a bit narrower...but be careful as this is the piece the mirror is mounted to on the other side...just make sure you have someone help you do it.

PICTURE TO LARGE FOR THE SCREEN AND ZOOM ISNT FIXING IT

Your TV set may have settings for picture size ratios but also if you have cable or sattelite service, they too may have these settings. Try both TV and cable remocons for proper adjustment

Yes, you have a size problem you have horizontal and vertical size. Either its' in the service mode or somewhere on the set, with this set it's probably in menu. Must be set too high. I will look for menu codes! Is this an Akai or Panasonic set?
