    Screen resolution

    I have just installed windows vista and cannot set the resolution for my 19"
    wide screen to 1440 x 900. I have a Logik LCD TV that I am using but it looks
    awful at the moment as i have had to set the resolution to 1028 x 768 just to
    see everything.

    Please help as i have run out of ideas!

    RE: Screen resolution

    Have you installed the latest graphics drivers?
    For NVIDIA cards, go to this site:
    http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
    For ATI cards, go to this site:
    http://ati.amd.com/support/driver.html

    Also, what type of cable did you use to connect your television?
    Over an S-Video or composite cable these higher resolutions are impossible.
    You'll need a VGA, DVI, HDMA or component cable to do that.
