You need to set the display to "clone." This way the display on the PC will be cloned (copied) to the TV screen. Your TV should be #2 and the PC should be #1.

You need to go into "advanced" settings for you display adapter & adjust the "viewable" screen size for the TV.
Right now it is overly magnified so you are unable to see all of it.
Depending on the type of video card you have the settings are there for you to adjust ... just explore them all & you will find them.

If this is a laptop there are usualy key short cuts that make it out put to differnt settings. try things lik fn + f4 of fn + f5 or one that looks like it could be the one.
