Hi I just purchased a dell inspiron 15 5000 series laptop, model number 5547. There is a roughly a half an inch black border all around the screen. The bezel ends and then there is this black border/frame that I just can't see to get rid of. I noticed through google that many people have had similar issues with Dell laptops however I can't seem to find a solution.

I made a video showing this black border around the screen - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yosaQaEDz5U&feature=youtu.be&list=UUNoa05KkhzVOOejpMH8A2ow

I have updated to all of the latest dell drivers but I am still having the same problem. I am just wondering if any others have had this issue? Thanks
 
Open Control Panel and select 'Display' - set the resolution to the highest value. Restart the computer. If the characters are too small then go to "Display" once again and change the DPI settings. Restart the computer.
