    Default How to connect my PC to my TV

    I'm kind of bored so I'm trying to do this. I connected everything up, got the right connections and my TV even has that PC box at the back. But when I do connect it, a message comes up on my TV saying "Mode not Supported". Am I doing something wrong?

    Best guess would be your desktop res is to high for the tv to support, hence "Mode not Supported"

    Set the desktop to 1024X768 then try to connect to the tv.

    You can rep me later, but i rather have a mars bar

    The resolution is at 1280x1024, will lowering it really work?

    If this works, you'll be drowning in Mars bars by the end of the week

    Yay! That did it, I got it to work. Not very exciting to be honest

    Cheers for the mars bars/rep

    glad it all panned out in the end, well to a certain degree.

    if you ever need advice on what type of HDTV to purchase, i`m sure their a few fellow members can point you in the right direction.

    My choice would be LG HDTV plasma tv`s just for their fast response times

    Just the other day, i was reading about down sampling,


    Spoiler Alert, click show to read: 
    I like it but on a GTX275, its best to keep the AA off


    The Effects of Down sampling to native res,No AA


    Screen size 2720X1536 32bit 60Hz.
    Native res X2, thats like having four tv`s into a 42" screen.
    (Native res on my tv is 1360X768)
    Picture re sampled to native res to show the effects of down sampling.
    The Aspect ratio is being rendered by the GPU not the Screen display.(full Screen,Override applications)
