Which Monitor?

[Spesh]

Hi guys, this is my first post on this forum.

I'm currently running a 32" LCD HD TV from an Nvidia Geforce 9600gt. The TV is connected to the dvi output on the card via an HDMI cable.However, contrary to what I thought when i purchased the screen, it only seems to support a maximum resolution of 1280 x 1024 even though the graphics card will support 1920 x 1080.

Firstly I would like to know if there is anyway to get round this with my current setup. I would've thought being an HD TV, it would be capable of running a higher resolution.

Failing that, would I have to reduce my screen size to achieve the higher resolution? Or are there large TV's available that can deal with this?

Cheers

Spesh.

Ok, I downloaded the latest drivers, and it seems I can now set my graphics card to its highest resolution without the screen going blank. However, if i do that then I lose the edges of the screen (approximately the thickness of the taskbar) all the way around the perimeter. Does this mean i need a better screen?

Ah good!

Check the TV's menu perhaps change the width and length, so stretch the TV manually.
