What to do if the image on the monitor has shifted to the right
Method 1: Adjust the refresh rate and resolution
The most common cause of the failure in question is when the screen refresh rate setting is incorrect. This is because some monitors are designed to operate at a certain resolution and frequency, so if there is an inconsistency, the image will shift sideways. To work around this problem, set the maximum available values as follows:
-
- En "Desk" hover over free space, right-click (PKM) and use "Screen settings"..
- In the settings menu, click the link "Advanced display settings".Choose here ... "Properties of the video adapter for display 1".
- Click on the tab "Monitor". and there in the dropdown menu "Screen refresh rate". select the highest value available and press "Apply". и "AGREE"..
- Minimize all windows (you can do it quickly with the hotkey Win + D) and check the status of the image. If nothing has changed, go back to the menu "Show". and use the list "Screen resolution".where you also set the maximum available and press «OK».
After these manipulations, everything should return to normal.
Method 2: Reinstall the drivers
If you are having difficulty with the above method, or if it does not produce the desired results, it may be because your video card or monitor software is out of date. The latter is especially true if you are using an advanced professional or gaming model, as many of its functions can only be activated with the appropriate software. We have already explained how to install the new versions of the drivers for both types of devices, so use the links below for detailed instructions.

-

- When the menu appears, look for the menu items with the following names "Adjust position", "Position" and the like, and then use the controls to set the desired position.
