Accourding to the manual, it is possible to change the input source name. I would advice the OP to try again what I suggested, I have a very similar Samsung TV/Monitor, and using DVI and VGA works perfectly with the computer, but I started using an HDMI cable, and the image would distort, all borders would be missing, till I change the name of the HDMI2 (the one I'm using) to "PC". Voila, everything to the right place. That's not written at the manual (neither yours, not the one for my TV), I learned it using a forum for HTPC owners. -- Daniel da Veiga
