Win Windows 8.1 2nd screen issue
#1
Hey Smile

I'm having a slight issue after upgrading to windows 8.1 - apologies if this has already been asked but I can't find the solution after searching.

I've upgraded from windows 8 to 8.1 and I'm getting an issue with xbmc playing on my 2nd screen. I have my living room TV as a 2nd monitor - set to extended in Windows.

For some reason, when the resolution is set to 1080p, xbmc's resolution seems to blow right up and stretch across onto my primary display.

I've got a geforce gtx680 running the latest beta drivers for 8.1 - 331.40.

Thanks for any help Smile

Not that this is a fix for you, but I updated to 8.1 last night - and it changed my resolution completely which affected XBMC. I didn't notice the change until I ran XBMC and it over spilled.

Double check your settings in your NVidea client or similar, 8.1 had disabled some specific Desktop resizing options I had in place for my second screen

I would post this in the Windows Support forum... I had a similar experience:
