[QUOTE="ADKhikerVW, post: 795334, member: 36483"] Another problem with that TV is that it is a widescreen TV with a 4:3 aspect ratio, so everything on the screen is stretched and distorted. A widescreen TV of that size should have a resolution of at least 1280x720, which would be a proper 16:9 resolution, but for some reason some manufacturers decide to stretch a 4:3 resolution across a 16:9 area. This makes everything look short and fat, and stretched horizontally. It is obvious just from looking at the pictures of your set up that this is the case. My old plasma TV had the same problem, and I could never use it attached to my computer because of the distortion this caused. 1024x768, even if it was displayed properly. is far too low of a resolution for a screen that large, if it is being used as a monitor.
