I got this new Samsung LED monitor and I can't get it to stay full picture for the life of me. I'm typically ending up with about an inch of black space around my screen which I can fix via the ATI Catalyst control center scaling options however this defaults back to the same shitty problem all the time.
I'm hoping one of you can help before I end up punching my monitor right in its stupid face.

I'm not sure I follow. Are you thinking it's the cord? If so, it's definitely not.
Eventually I was able to install an updated driver that corrected my issues. Given that, have you looked for a new driver?
My monitors native is 1680x1050. Windows only thinks it can do 1280x1024. I have had to use catalyst to force it into 1920 x1080, I'm not using my pc loads so it isn't bothering me but if I had a fair amount if expendable cash then I would definitely get a new monitor.

That sounds exactly like what's going on for me.
So, in short, my monitor is a dick?

1. Open Catalyst
2. Click on the Graphics menu on the top left and select Desktops & Displays.
3. There should a picture of a monitor on the bottom left. Right click it. Select Configure.
4. There should be 6 tabs to choose from near the top. Select Scaling Options.
5. Move the slide bar all the way to the right.
6. You're problem should be solved. If not check and make sure your resolution is still correct.
I sincerely hope that helps. It fixed my problem right away and I haven't had more trouble since.

Unfortunately I've already been doing this. It does work but the problem is that it keeps defaulting back to the dickishness setting.
An annoyance to be sure but in my book not much can change it short of rolling back drivers.
