I have the same mac mini connected to beosystem3 and i have the same problem...

Try lower resolutions.

Or change picture settings of the monitor.

I came to realise that When i set resolution to 1080p, the picture setting on my tv(samsung 52lvxxxx four year old lcd) must be on "just scan" not "16:9" or "zoom"...

Select FORMAT 1 on the Beo 4. The picture should be complete. This is what I am

doing when I connect my Macbook Pro to my Beovision 7 MK III

Good luck,
