guys i connected a old tv to my geforce vga card for bigger display,but at high resolutions like 1024*768 on tv letters are blured,but at 640*480 it's clear but my monitor has 1280*1024 so some screen area isn't visible,
and when i play a video(i think any thing uses overlay)it isn't visible on tv,
how to correct this?:confused:

Old TVs (non HDTVs that is) don't support resolutions above 720x576 and maybe this is the case.

    machan, tv is not a monitor :D , so u will have to use windows magnifier to zoom out the letters.. The system on Monitor and TV is different. Thats y ur eyes wont hurt when u r in front of a monitor (comparing to in front of a TV-ur eyes hurt SO MUCH ne) u can use either 1 of the output displays if ur going to play videos.. if u plan to play videos on TV then select Primary display as TV on display settings.. Or plug out the secondary display (monitor)..

    You can use two displays at once too :D

    check display properties->settings tab AFTER plugging in the TV out jack.. youll see some additional options :D

    did u see my setup on photos?
    http://www.elakiri.com/forum/showthread.php?t=65501
    i've the same setup but i use a RF modulator to modulate A/V signal,i think u just input the video signal to TV?
    so to what frequnacy u tune?
    now i see a tv series and it's great macho(but can't beat the monitor but it has a bigger screen)
