Hello all!! Have to say this is one great site!!
Thanks for any advice!!

I have the 42" samsung DLP HL-R4266W. I just hooked up my pc to the tv through my video card dvi to the hdmi port on my tv using a dvi to hdmi cable. (this model dlp tv has no pc dvi input on the back). The tv does work using the pc but the picture is to zoomed in!!

I cant even see the start icon on the bottom left part of the windows desktop screen. Any one have a solution toi this annoying problem???? I tried all resoulution changes...

thanks

You need a piece of free software called, Powerstrip. Just google it and download it then you can adjust your PC output as you wish.

you can do it with Nvidia drivers... if that's what your video card is using.
