Good morning, evening or whenever you're reading this.
I recently acquired an unknown brand GeForce 2 MX400 graphics card, which features both an S-Video port and a Composite output. I need that for recording an art project over to VHS. Unfortunately, I've ran into a roadblock quite early on. The card seems to have a stupid automatic overscan feature when on a typical, PC resolution i.e. 800x600 or 640x480, as seen on screenshots below. As I'm in a PAL region, I thought setting the resolution to exactly 720x576 would help, but then the whole display is shifted upwards and I can't do anything about it, even though I found the screen adjustments in the driver. When I set the output region as NTSC and the resolution to 720x480, everything looks correct, but my VCR only works with PAL, so I can't do that. I've tested 56.72 and 93.71 drivers, and it's the same case on both. Is there any tested way of fixing that, disabling the overscan or any tested driver that works correctly?
Here is the comparsion between how PAL 720x576 is supposed to look like, and how it looks in Composite (you can see the desktop is shifted upwards and there's a black bar on the bottom)
Here is PAL 800x600, with the annoying black borders
Here is 720x480 in NTSC mode, which works fine but not with the VCR
And here is the device adjustment tab, which doesn't seem to work at all
