Apect Ratio on Smartboard

Problem:  Installed Smartboard a couple of weeks ago.  Set screen resolution on teacher's computer and it has worked fine since then.  However, this morning, teacher reported her projected image was hanging over the sides of the board.

Solution:  I initially thought it was a problem with the ATI Catalyst Converter - it wasn't.

The teacher had apparently pressed a button on the remote entitled "aspect" (located immediately above the "freeze" button on the remote) and that button changed the aspect ratio on the smartboard.  The fix to the problem was to simply press the "aspect" button until it returned to "normal".  "Normal" will be displayed in the top right hand corner of the Smartboard.

    Thanks to Jenny Reed, Pam VanMater and Julie Masterson for sharing this information.
