Screen not displaying fullscreen?

Hi,

I've got a Oslon 7" composite indash LCD.

The lcd works fine when played from a dvd player. However when it's hooked up to the pc it doesnt fill the screen, instead there is about a 1 cm border around the whole picture.

Im running the following specs:
Duron 900
PC chips micro atx motherboard
128mb SD ram
Gigabyte 54mb pci wireless card
windows XP media centre 2005
frodoplayer

Im wondering how I go about getting it full screen. I assume I'll have to change the resolution? Currently it is set to 640x480, but I have tried other resolutions, which either kept the size the same or was smaller.

try resetting the screen. It worked for me in my lilli. Also use 800x600. There should be a reset tab or menu built onto the screen

good luck!

there isnt a reset tab in the menu.

I also have tried fiddling with power strip, but thus far with no luck.

As the screen works fine from a dvd player, is there any way I can emulate that kind of outp[ut? what resolution etc does a standard dvd player output?
