MPC Touch screen only shows half the menu (Can't be set to the right resolution - WIN 7)
Title says it all actually. Would have posted in the Akai sub, but that doesn't seem to exist. Just like a similar case in the FAQs/solutions on in my google searches.
I just bought a used MPC Touch, it's all good. Came with the MPC 2.0 software and a decksaver, great deal.
Unfortunately, the screen of the Touch is being a ding dong. My desktop gets expanded on it partially and the MPC Software screen starts "behind" the expanded portion of the desktop, if that makes sense. I'm using WIndows 7 (planing on 'upgrading' to 10 in the near future, but not as of now).
Pictures of Issue:
I installed the drivers in the order the akai mpc installer tells you to (I even rebooted my PC like a good boy after every install/uninstall, just like the installer told me to!) and configured the settings just as described.
I deinstalled everything manually and did the whole process all over again. Sadly it didn't change.
In one screenshot you can see that it recommends to be set to 1280x960. However, I can only set it to 1280x800.)
Does anybody have any tips for me? I also contacted the support but as we all know, supports for these type of issues with controller hardware isn't what it should be.
!I love you. <3!<

Is that really how the screen works? As a second monitor?
It can be used as an extenden monitor, yes. It is truely weird.
There are two settings:
(This lets you also "mirror" your desktop [Akai advises against this])
I'm starting to think, that I need to change the graphics driver for the second monitor but I can't seem to find the right one on my PC even though I installed everything Akai wanted me to.
This is such a bummer.
