Blurry text at high resolutions

Hello,

I have an Lenovo Z360 laptop with two graphic cards:

Intel HD Graphics - Handles desktop

Nvidia 310M - Handles games

My desktop native's resolution is 1336x768, and I got a really blurry text when I connect it to my 42" TV, 1920x1080.

Here's a picture of it:

That white text says "Both photos were taken from TV"

In movies and games the image is OK, but for windows and internet browsing it's impossibru (joke xD)

Also, it cuts all 4 edges of my screen:

I know you can adjust screen proportion on Intel's panels, that solves the borders, but makes text even harder to read...

I'm using the latest Intel drivers, just installed them.

Windows 7 64bits

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

Systems that feature switch able graphics, require the usage of a special driver that lets you take advantage of this technology. That driver is completely customized and only provided by your Original Equipment Manufacturer or system manufacturer.

In this case, if you are having issues using those particular drivers, you should contact your Original Equipment Manufacturer directly for assistance on your problem.

I see.

 

I was using Intel HD Graphics latest drivers downloaded from Intel.

I'll download it from Lenovo's website.

Thanks, I will try and edit here in 20 mins or so.

So,

That doesn't work.

Lenovo's driver is nothing but an generic Intel Driver, except a little outdated.

I've contacted Lenovo's support, and it's not only me who haves this problem:

Let's see if we can work this out...
