I pressed the auto adjust button on my monitor, and now it's slightly off center, horizontally. It looks something like this


How can I fix it? Lowering the resolution works, but I'd rather not :p

your monitor should have screen adjustment buttons on it

See if there is a driver for your specific monitor, change the refresh rate or use the image adjustments from the monitor as twicksisted suggested.

The Horizontal Frequence is 55.8, and the Vertical is 59.8. Could this be why?

I've tried screen adjustments, but there's still a bit cutting off regardless. My only option is to cut off the left or right of the picture

You should have a horizontal size adjustment and a horizontal position adjustment. You will probably need to take the size down a little, then adjust the position left. Rinse and repeat as necessary. If all else fails, there used to be a way to do this in the ATI catalyst control center - check there under setting up the displays.

My suggestion... use the auto-adjust again but make sure you're set to native res. and usually I would set a full screen photo to look at before, during and after the adjust.

Şame thing with my old analog LCD monitor. In other auto adjust to work you must have bright picture across the screen or picture will be off like in your case...

Holy shit, that worked!

I pressed auto adjust in fullscreen, then again when not in fullscreen and it worked

It might be cos I pressed auto adjust last night (in fullscreen) whilst watching Tom & Jerry

Do that in other resolutions if you use them so that monitor could memorize position. The best thing is pure white image. If there are some darker corners on the picture chances are that picture will be of by few pixels.
