What to do with a broken monitor? - eviltoast

Found this bad boy next to the dumpster. 32" Samsung. Anything I can do to salvage it? Or is it too expensive to fix? (I’m pretty handy)

Or could I use it as is and somehow only use the working portion of the screen?

    I’m not sure that’s the solution you’re looking for; but, you can set it to display only on the working side of the monitor.

    So the OS would use it, as a ‘smaller’ screen.
