Sometimes, you may find that your Windows 10 display is too big for your PC monitor.<\/p>\n<p>That&rsquo;s because the computer may occasionally display images with a resolution that is too high for the display.<\/p>\n<p>You&rsquo;ll only see a small part of your desktop when that occurs. This can make it difficult to use your PC for any productive work.<\/p>\n<p>Luckily, when your monitor display is too large, you can resolve it in two easy ways. Find out how to fix the &ldquo;Windows 10 display too big&rdquo; problem in this article.<\/p>\n<p>Let&rsquo;s begin.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Fix an Oversized Screen on a Computer?<\/h2>\n<p>\nThere are two easy fixes for this issue. Let&#8217;s go through them:\n<\/p>\n<h3>Method 1: Change your screen resolution<\/h3>\n<p>Sometimes, if the screen is too wide on Windows 10, it may be because the screen resolution on your computer has been altered. Here&rsquo;s how you can revert to the recommended resolution: <\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>On your desktop, right-click any empty space.<\/li>\n<li>Go to <em>Display Settings<\/em>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"screenshots\">\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__image-shadow\">\r\n    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Windows-10-display-settings.webp\" alt=\"Windows 10 display settings\" class=\"lazyload screenshots__image\">\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__description\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Click  <em>System<\/em> on the left side of the window, then select  <em>Display<\/em>. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"screenshots\">\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__image-shadow\">\r\n    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Windows-10-System-Display-Settings.webp\" alt=\"Windows 10 System Display Settings\" class=\"lazyload screenshots__image\">\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__description\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scroll down, search for  <em>Display resolution<\/em>, and choose the <em>Recommended display resolution<\/em> option. <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"screenshots\">\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__image-shadow\">\r\n    <img data-src=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/Change-Display-resolution-Windows-10.webp\" alt=\"Change Display resolution Windows 10\" class=\"lazyload screenshots__image\">\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <div class=\"screenshots__description\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">The screen should automatically adjust the moment you select an option.&nbsp; <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Now, check your screen to see if the display issues on Windows 10 are resolved. If yes, then clearly, the issue has been solved, and you can go back to working on your PC.&nbsp; However, if your  Windows 10 monitor  still has the screen resolution problem, things may be a bit more complicated, and you may need to update your display driver.&nbsp; Don&rsquo;t worry &mdash; we will give you the steps to go through this process below. <\/p>\n<h3>Method 2: Update your display driver<\/h3>\n<p>Drivers are software elements that help external hardware on your computer (like speakers, monitors, graphics cards, etc.) communicate with your system and ensure they function properly.<br \/>\n If you have a device connected to your PC, but its driver is missing or outdated, this can result in various issues, such as errors and glitches and the inability to use some components.  So, it is essential to keep your system drivers up to date. There are two ways to update your graphics card to solve  Windows 10 screen resolution  being too big: you can do it manually or update your drivers automatically. <strong>Updating your drivers manually<\/strong>Updating your drivers manually is typically recommended for more experienced users. First, you will need to  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.makeuseof.com\/check-graphics-card-model-windows-11\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">find out the model of your graphics card<\/a><\/p>\n<p>.<\/p>\n<p>You can find this information by visiting the manufacturer&rsquo;s website or the  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lifewire.com\/device-manager-2625860\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Device Manager<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After, visit the company website that makes your graphics card, such as  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/why-is-nvidia-graphics-card-not-showing-in-device-manager\/\">NVIDIA<\/a>, AMD, or Intel. Find the most recent drivers for the model of graphics card you have and download them.  <\/p>\n<p>Then, follow the on-screen directions to install the downloaded drivers. <\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/why-is-nvidia-graphics-card-not-showing-in-device-manager\/\">Why is NVIDIA graphics card not showing in Device Manager?<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<p>This may seem a bit overwhelming if you have never tinkered with your drivers before. Moreover, updating your drivers manually is time-consuming and requires patience and commitment.&nbsp; The worst part is that making a mistake and downloading the wrong driver version can lead to even bigger problems on your computer. <\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><strong>Also Read: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/how-to-update-drivers\/\">[EASY GUIDE] How to Update Device Drivers on a Windows 10 PC?<\/a><\/p>\n<hr>\n<h4><strong>Updating your drivers automatically<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p>Since manually updating drivers can be time-consuming and lead to bigger problems, using advanced software like  <a href=\"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/software\/driver-updater\/\">Auslogics Driver Updater<\/a> is far better.

For the past five years, I\u2019ve been creating content that\u2019s informative, helpful, and actually fixes whatever issues your Windows PC is giving you. It all began when my uncle got me my first PC. Happy as I was, this pre-owned computer was riddled with lots of issues, like constant crashes, blue screens of death, and driver problems. Plus, it was really slow. This was when my knack for research heavily kicked off. Fast-forwarding to today, I\u2019ve spent years in the SEO trenches, helping Auslogics craft content that actually solves problems Windows users face. And that includes Windows updates, product reviews, cyberattacks, improving PC performance, AI, and more. I break down complex topics into easy-to-digest articles that you can follow. When I\u2019m not researching current issues that Windows users are facing and finding ways to fix them, you\u2019ll probably find me streaming the latest games or catching up on the current happenings in the AI world.

For the past five years, I\u2019ve been creating content that\u2019s informative, helpful, and actually fixes whatever issues your Windows PC is giving you. It all began when my uncle got me my first PC. Happy as I was, this pre-owned computer was riddled with lots of issues, like constant crashes, blue screens of death, and driver problems. Plus, it was really slow. This was when my knack for research heavily kicked off. Fast-forwarding to today, I\u2019ve spent years in the SEO trenches, helping Auslogics craft content that actually solves problems Windows users face. And that includes Windows updates, product reviews, cyberattacks, improving PC performance, AI, and more. I break down complex topics into easy-to-digest articles that you can follow. When I\u2019m not researching current issues that Windows users are facing and finding ways to fix them, you\u2019ll probably find me streaming the latest games or catching up on the current happenings in the AI world. I bring these experiences into my writing to ensure you get a detailed solution! Feel free to check out my work and connect with me on X or LinkedIn!","sameAs":["https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/aziz-hamidov\/","https:\/\/x.com\/aziz_hmdv"],"knowsAbout":["Windows","Software","Cyber Threats","PC performance","AI"],"jobTitle":"Tech Writer","worksFor":"Auslogics","url":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/author\/aziz-hamidov\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14883","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/87"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14883"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14883\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":95301,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/14883\/revisions\/95301"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62089"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14883"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=14883"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.auslogics.com\/en\/articles\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=14883"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
