I got an Panasonic TC-L32S1 HDTV, and I tried hooking up my PC to it via HDMI, however I get this...

As you can see, it cuts off part of my screen. I tried messing with the TV format (full, zoom, 4:3), and I can't figure out how to do it. When I choose a lower resolution, there would be a black border around it. Any suggestions?

Anyway to fix it?

EDIT - I was told to try updating my drivers, I am going to check it out.
 
If you google "overscan drivers", most of the links will with nvidia, and nobody has a solution to it except one person posting to update drivers with no replies.
 
I think I found a way to do, but it's not 1920x1080 anymore.
 
That didn't work, and neither did the drivers update. I did the "Adjust desktop size and position" in the nVidia control panel, and in order to make it fit normally, the resolution is 1768x992.

EDIT - does ATI actually let you keep the 1920x1080 resolution?
 
Yep.

And it has overscan adjustments among other things.

I have no idea why people say their drivers are so bad, they have been much more though out than NV's at the least.
