Why is this happening?

Are you saying that when you suspend your HTPC the image size is 'too large/small' for the TV? There should be a setting on your TV - I have a Samsung and the TV setting is 'Just Scan' under picture options.

That sounds more like an issue with your TV or AVR set up.

Well, what happens with the refresh rate when you use XBMC? AMD are notorious for over/underscanning and need to be set up correctly.
That being said without screenshots of your exact AMD configuration I can't really say any more. On my previous LG TV I had to set each refresh rate in Windows so it didn't underscan - with my Samsung I use the 'Just Scan' option on the TV so it means I don't have to bother with that.
Either:
1) Screenshots of your Windows refresh rates and AMD configs
or
2) Look further through the settings of your TV.

Keep in mind that for AMD GPU's the overscan settings are not global, it must be set for every valid refresh rate.

The above post is true and it's annoying - but that's why I love the Samsung setting for Just Scan.
