You need to tell people what the connection type is; RCA, S-Video, VGA, DVI, HDMI?

You could go into the System Preferences and into the monitor section to see if there is some setting you can muck around with.

I've not worked with a TV as an external monitor before but have you set it to run at its native resolution?
