Windows XP. The screen loses the first three characters on the left. There is a black band to the right. I want to move the screen three paces to the right. Have tried Mode con ,r,t with combinations of spaces and commas but always returned as illegal. Any suggestions? Geoff C

  • Does this also happen in windows, or only in textmode? does it happen in the bios too? is it possible to make a photo and show us?

I'm not sure what "Mode con ,r,t" are but is it possible that the monitor settings themselves need the adjustment, not the computer? I'm assuming this is an LCD/LED monitor? Some have an auto-adjust feature that places the video correctly. Some also have position settings.

  • mode con rows, cols is what you use to alter the screen in a command prompt.
