Hi.
I'm using a scart cable with an lcd/tv monitor with my QL.
Using monitor mode I'm not able to see the first three character on the left.
Which is The problem!?

Monitor mode has always the first few characters missing on normal tvs :)

Most TVs and many monitors fail to see a few characters at the edge fo the screen due to overscan.

Mr Navigator got Jon Sim from JS Technology to do a mod on their Simple Video Scalar unit which compensates for overscan, allowing a QL to be connected to VGA monitors. Dr. Sim wrote an article about it in Quanta magazine. Info - try this link to a previous topic:
