Picture seems to big for TV.cant read bottom words on screen and words are cut off on side also. Cant see scrores on any sports or read peoples names on bottom of the screen

Hello; All HDTV's have an "aspect ratio" option on the remote control. It may be named something else. You can choose horizontal stretch which makes people look fatter than they are, Zoom which cuts off top bottom and sides of the pix and others. Just choose the one you like best. Hope this helps!

the resolution from the source is set too high, also check the settings in your television it may be set too high.

You need to go into the TV menu and change the settings for the display! Press the Menu button and adjust the Picture! It's probably set to automatic and not reading them correctly.

select the correct tv format, check your manual

Ok take your Vizio remote control go to the Lower section of the buttons and look for the - Zoom + button than decrease the zoom.

go to page 37 of the manual and read through to RESET TO FACTORY SETTINGS


Thanks for using FIXYA

This is normal - you are zooming in on the picture. Most people use the zoom feature to "stretch" a widescreen movie so it will fit the screen.

do you have an old monitor or new?
is your video card driver properly installed?

I would need more information for your tv however it sound like you may end up needing to replace the main board.

You should have a button or setting on the remote that says "picture size" or "aspect". One of those is set too "zoom" mode which will cut off the bottom and top of the frames. You want it to be in 16:9,Normal or Full mode (or whatever your set call it) to get the correct aspect. Or if you have a HD satellite rcvr. you might of placed it in the zoom mode as well.
