I have two 1366x768p monitors (they seem to be around 19 inches) and a 14-inch laptop with the same resolution. Windows treats them as identical, which causes scaling problems between the laptop and monitors when switching between them. When I adjust the laptop's resolution, it mostly fixes the issue, but I still see large black borders on the screen. I’m wondering if there’s a way to tell Windows the difference in screen sizes. Thanks! MONITOR 1 is the laptop—it’s the problem.

According to common knowledge, AMD Eyefinity might resolve or enhance the issue, but you'll still need an AMD graphics card. It's unclear if any third-party tools can handle this.
