Skullz Posted February 16, 2010 Report Share Posted February 16, 2010 You have to find the native resolution of the TV, check the manual and see what it says it is. Try 1360x768 and see if that works if not keep trying all the others.

I knows this because that's the way mine is, I also use a TV as a monitor. It's effing awesome.
