Check that [likely successfully], but also, depending upon your video
driver, it may have additional screens for adjusting within its own
Control/Settings Panels..
Key combination can be specific to each individual card.chipset and driver,
or personal settings which you may have applied...

If not able to find these or correct the issues this way, post the
card/chipset [so the *normal* reg settings can be cross-checked with any
specific card settings] and perhaps some registry modifications can be
found.
