Problems connecting LCD projection TV

Latency · 05-August-06, 10:44 PM

Hey guys

I was hoping someone out there would be able to help me. I have recently purchased a 42" Sony LCD Projection TV (KDFE42A10) that is capable of displaying 1080i. I am running an ATI X800 SE video card and was told that I would be able to connect them using a DVI to HDMI cable. Now i have both displays working either seperately or stretching but is it possible to clone the image so that the same thing is displayed on both? Also when I set my TV to display it seems as if there is desktop that is not being displayed (if that makes sense). Is there any way to fix that?

Thank you in advance

is it native 1080p (1920 x 1200) native 720 (1366/1280 x 720)? if your monitor is 4:3 or 5:4 you might have issues with clone since both displays would ideally have the same native res. try out the vga in too. if you try something like 854 x 480 and it displays pixle perfect id take it back.
