[QUOTE="kathleenruth, post: 1329370, member: 138321"] [b]Setting up a 15" MacBook Pro with a Westinghouse VR-4025 TV[/b] I was trying to connect a 15" MacBook Pro with Mac OSX Leopard, to a 40" Westinhouse VR-4025. I kept getting the error message "Invalid Format" and I tried every possible display resolution. In the end I contacted Westinghouse who suggested I switch out the VGA cable I got a generic vga cable from Amazon and tried it - it worked! It was a vga cable from Target that was the issue, yet they both looked alike. So if you are having problems it might be worth switching cables. According to Westinghouse a higher quality cable can sometimes cause compatibilty issues. [/QUOTE]
