AVR Switching Problem

Just finished building a new HTPC using Gigabytes GA-H77N-WIFI with Intel HD 4000 graphics.

I have this hooked up my 50" Samsung TV via my Yamaha AVR.

HTPC is running Windows 8.1 with i believe the latest Intel Drivers

Major Issue 1: If i shutoff the AVR while in XBMC,it appears the resolution changes and the image no longer fits the screen. It increases in size to where i can no longer see the controls and a large part of the movie.

If i start off with the AVR either on or off, the image is fine. This never happened with my previous HTPC running with integrated ATI graphics.

Minor Issue 2: I have to alter the scaling in order to fit the image to my TV screen. In the process i loose about 1/2" at the top of the screen.

My old graphics software allowed me to shift the image upwards while maintaining the correct scaling. In other words i was able to fill the TV screen with the image.

Any help would be appreciated

I am sorry to hear that have had issues with the Intel Graphics Controller.

I just received information from engineering and they have fixed this type of issues releasing driver version 3345.

Please make sure to test the latest version, filter by operating system version and try to install the driver when it finishes downloading, to verify that your system will accept it.

Alan,

Thanks for your response. According to the Intel Driver Update Utility and the Java app i ran there, im told i have the latest drivers.

The version im running is 10.18.10.3379. Im assuming these are newer than the ones you posted the link for.

For Windows 8.1 64 bit, the link you posted shows 10.18.10.3345.

If these are the newest or a different from what is available at the link i went to below. Please let me know.

I have posted the link for the latest and supported driver for your graphics controller. The version 3379 appears to be customized by either Microsoft Updates or your computer manufacturer.
