I bought a 37" Lcd TV, through my PC I'm having a lot of trouble getting it to use it's native resolution, because the horizontal isn't divisible by 8.
I'm using the VGA port on the TV and I suppose I could also try HDMI to DVI, but I don't have the cable for that.
My video card (nvidia 6800gt) only has two DVI ports, I have it using VGA with help from a converter.
Using PowerStrip as many have suggested has not helped me at all, I can get the display properties to say "1366x768" but it's always really at 1360 or 1368.
Also, the latest nvidia drivers are supposed to give me HDTV options but I can't find any...which I think is related to my brand having funky EDID (Syntax Olevia)
Would getting a different cable setup help?
I've heard linux doesn't have this problem but I'm saving that as a last resort.
