Windows not using full display

Go to solution Solved by William12h,

Its in the My Digital Flat panel area, just look around for it, there is a overscan/underscan area where you move the slider from 10% to 0%

Does anyone know where i find the location for scaling options in CCC? Windows isn't using the full display so i suspect an overscan issue. Does anyone know where i can find that option? I found posts on other websites but i dont have the same tab. Or perhaps its another problem? can someone help me Mine looks like this :

I swear i have looked through every single tab thing. It used to be in an area called 'scaling options' but as you can see with my screenshot, that is no longer there

Maybe check Desktop options, Check everything. and on Widdows Resolutions etc

And check if Enable GPU scaling needs to be on.
