[QUOTE="m.parker, post: 1248118, member: 34690"] [b]Solved![/b] Tried that... didnt work... I did however fix it... And i was correct, My TV didint like the Interlaced setting... Anyhow... I plugged the MBP into the working TV and figured out what key strokes I had to press to get into and change the resolution... Then i hooked it back up to the TV I am having problems with and Viola... I am back in business... only took me 5 hours... :( For future reference the key stroke is... Option - f2 (wait a sec for window to load) press Tab once then use up and down arrows *if you press up/down and nothing happens, its because when switching to some resolutions there is a warning screen, so if nothing happens in 10sec press enter (doing so would be like clicking the "ok" button) :) [/QUOTE]
