Your talking the Home screen? If you tried repairing and reinstalling, are the drivers for your video card updated? Do any of the applications when opened give a video card warning of any kind?

Any screen within EMC 10 has this problem. Video card driver is up to date. I checked that specifically. I have not received any video card warnings. I have no problems with any other programs.

Resetting display settings to 96 dpi cured the problem.

OK. Video drivers are updated. Display resolution is 1024 x 768. DPI = 96.
The screen image still extends beyond the borders of my display. I can't find the Archive button in BackOnTrack. No problem with Creator Classic or Music Disc Maker. Also no problem with any of the programs I use regularly except one screen in Quicken. In Quicken I can still see the top edge of the button I need to press. No so in BackOnTrack.
Thank you.

Also what type of video card? Perhaps this is a known issue that can be researched.

Video card is an NVIDIA GeForce 7300 SE/7200 G5. I have the latest driver.
Thank you for responding.

I would guess that this could be a problem between the video card and the monitor. Most monitor are DDC compliant meaning they 'talk' to the video card to tell the card what resolutions they are capable. Kind of sounds like the video card isn't getting the correct information about the monitor.
For testing purposes, try using the next resolution up like 1152X864 and see if you have the same problem. YOu can switch back when finished. You might want to keep it there if it works and the text isn't too small for you.

I've tried every resolution from 800 x 600 to 1600 x 1200. Nothing works. It's weird. With the higher resolutions, everything shifts to the upper left. (We're talking the back up program here, nothing else.) On the left menu, I can't see anything to the left of "uck up guide."
I can't see the top menu bar. In fact, the only way I can close the program is with the Task Manager.

Maybe you're thinking of my "Movie Background" issue when everything was oversized and squashed until I changed a setting in the Nvidia Ntune CPL?
It could actually be a similar issue here too so I see no harm in relaying it here for this one..
(Hi Gary too!!)
Ankrum - Do you have the Nvidia Ntune Control Panel installed? If so, open it and go to the "Adjust Image Settings with Preview" section and select the "Let the 3D Application Decide" setting. It seems that anything but this setting when EMC 10 is installed messes with allot of graphical things. Let us know if this worked or not.
Another suggestion for future use in All online forums, it's always best to start your own thread for your issue rather than insert it into another persons thread, even if it's the exact same issue. It's called "Thread Hijacking" and can cause serious confusion as people lose track of who's talking to whom and what's getting done (and by whom). It can get out of hand quickly and then nobody gets proper help.

NP Bruce...I was pretty sure that was the post you were referring too..
TY Gary!
I have well over 600,000 posts in online help forums, so I've been helping folks for along time now and one of the Most confusing things is when 2 or more people are asking for help in the same thread...don't you think. It all just goes to heII in a handbasket faster than you can blink that way, as nobody is exactly sure who's replying to who after awhile, so I always try to teach the newer forum users the basic etiquette of posting. More eyes look at it also if you have your own thread since allot of forum users pass on reading posts that they see are already being worked on by the regulars, so it's always best to start new threads for any question.
I hope Ankrum posts back with results so we know if this worked for him/her also.
Later!

First of all, my apologies for not following this forum's etiquette guidelines. I saw that the original poster's issue had been resolved and didn't think I was hijacking the thread (by that I mean interfering with someone else's ability to get their problem resolved). What irks me is when someone introduces a completely different topic.
That said, I tried the program on a completely different computer-monitor setup. I could see all of the fields on the window, but there was still some overscan. So... I think the problem is both a combination of my video card/monitor and Roxio's programming. They did something with the BackUp module that they didn't do with the others.
I did an extensive search on Nvidia's forums and came up with nothing.
Thank you,
Denny

Hi Denny
Not a big deal since this forum is not quite as busy as others, but it's not just "This forum's" guidleines, it's Every forum. It has the potential to muddy the waters so to speak, on any online help forum and is widely discouraged because of that. I'm sure you can see the potential for confusion so I was simply pointing it out...no harm done.
I am curious tho...do you have the Nvidia Ntune control panel and if so, did you try that setting I showed to change? Since it works pretty well on another setup, I get the feeling that this issue could easily be caused by that setting. It doesn't seem like it should...I know..I couldn't see the connection either, but when I started testing everything in sight to fix my issue it turned out to be that setting that messes with EMC's graphical interface somehow.
Just as I was finishing this I remembered that I had a problem exactly like this a couple years ago, but I can't recall the program or the fix right now...I'm wrackin my brains out trying to remember. Same thing...window too large for the display when maxxed (even spanned over 2 monitors) and critical buttons were missing because of it. Dang...just can't recall it right now but I'll try to remember and if I do will post it immediately for you guys.
