Yeah, I flashed my video card's bios so it's putting out the right res. I did edit the theme.plist in both places for 1920x1080 and still have the borders. I even downloaded another theme from the forums here (the FBI one) that said it was 1920x1080 and it displays the same.
Strange thing is that I borrowed a friends monitor which is a 1900x1200 (16:10) and flashed my video card bios for that res and it displays perfectly. I wouldn't count that as a fix though cause I had to give the monitor back.
