Windows 10 Back to windows - confused - wake on lan to resolution

[Gaogier]

Hello

so I haven't used windows really since 2006, being a Mac user, but a huge fan of gaming, but fed up with having to buy the latest consoles every couple years... Xbox 360 original, 360 slim... xbox one to Xbox s/x and now the Xbox series gen. So I got my holiday money for 2020 summer holiday, and built A pc which I can slowly upgrade where needed.


my Setup is, running 4k via my tv, running at 300% for text app size.

when I boot my pc up, the boards logo shows, but it’s very small, and the bios text info on same screen is also too small, but bios itself is fine. why and how do fix this?
how can I wake up my pc from not in sleep mode (aka turned off) I can wake from sleep
the “picture”/“window” doesn’t seem to fit my tv, the edges are cut off by a small amount, again how do I fix this?
is there away that I can have an imaged startup icons for different os systems, my pc has Linux running too.
is there a theme that makes my pc run more like xp/vista?

Addressing Your Concerns:​

1. Booting Screen and BIOS Size Issue:
   • The discrepancy in display size during boot could be due to the TV display settings. Check the TV's "Overscan" or "Output Format" settings and set it to "Screen Fit" or similar to ensure the display fits properly.
   • In BIOS, some modern UEFI BIOS have custom resolution settings that might be affecting this. Try resetting the BIOS settings to default or looking for a specific display setting that influences resolution.
   []Turning on PC from Off State:
   • As of Windows 10, the traditional BIOS options to wake a PC from a completely powered off state are limited to specific hardware settings, like Wake-on-LAN.
   • Powering on a PC requires physically pressing the power button or configuring BIOS settings for special functions like Wake-on-LAN.
   []Display Overscan Issue:
   • Overscan issues are common on TVs, especially when connected to a computer. You can try fixing this by finding the aspect ratio or picture settings on your TV and setting it to "Just Scan", "1:1 pixel mapping", or similar.
   • Additionally, check your GPU control panel (e.g., NVIDIA Control Panel or AMD Catalyst) for overscan settings.
   []Custom Startup Icons for OS Systems:
   • You can't natively set up different boot screen icons for different operating systems. However, you can use a bootloader like GRUB for Linux that can be customized, and Windows Boot Manager can be tailored to some extent.
   []Classic Theme Options:
   • If you prefer a look and feel similar to XP or Vista, you can achieve this by customizing your Windows theme. Look for themes that emulate the older versions or use tools like Classic Shell to enhance the Windows experience. For more detailed instructions on specific settings or to tackle any technical issues, you may need to access your GPU control panel, BIOS settings, as well as explore additional customization options provided by specific software or hardware components.
